Any consumer that imports the package and invokes the default export runs attacker-controlled code with the installer's Node privileges — enabling arbitrary payload delivery, credential theft, persistence, or downstream compromise. Additional misdirection: the package name `mdb-vite` evokes MDBootstrap/Vite tooling, keywords are `react, helper, svg`, the README titles itself `polymarket-clob-api`, and package.json describes it as a Polymarket CLOB SDK — none of which match the code, which only fetches and evals remote JavaScript. A `bearrtoken: 'logo'` header and an unused CDN-provider map (cloudflare/fastly/akamai/cloudfront) are decoys to make the loader appear CDN-related.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (5e2c6b3eff8c409ee862db83e5d1211582cd14238384a89c0bc6b31b16fbead7)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.\n","affected":[{"package":{"name":"mdb-vite","ecosystem":"npm"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.5.2"],"database_specific":{"cwes":[{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"},{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"}],"indicators":{"evidence_files":[{"path":"index.js","sha256":"f03baeca30cfcbb5903b1d93435435be75b45695cae2510970d803a09ba7071d","tlsh":"3ac1616546fa31a36a67e4edf30f10027165e3133759e971f48e42902fca568e5f24e8"},{"path":"package.json","sha256":"1d521fdd6bb95dcef161910cc42e1f0268dff49b6ccc72e246deede141e35357","tlsh":"caf04620ce25deb304d615969c39808ba161d94f8d51fc0d378a476c4f4e66f26fe66c"}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-w572-cxjv-46jc"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/mdb-vite/v/1.5.2"}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"GHSA-w572-cxjv-46jc","import_time":"2026-07-10T16:54:13.298233764Z","modified_time":"2026-07-10T16:12:27Z","ranges":[{"events":[{"introduced":"0"}],"type":"SEMVER"}],"sha256":"5e2c6b3eff8c409ee862db83e5d1211582cd14238384a89c0bc6b31b16fbead7","source":"ghsa-malware"},{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-009793","import_time":"2026-07-13T04:43:13.021955703Z","modified_time":"2026-07-13T04:27:24Z","sha256":"d24ffe7ac6e64aab50d9ba84f5b06ffd1047663698d25071770749b36afe6543","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["1.5.2"]},{"id":"RLMA-2026-06324","import_time":"2026-09-01T11:17:32.398736351Z","modified_time":"2026-08-24T16:59:00Z","sha256":"8890cfc46b29bb7f6fae187083169fc96bbdaec3397103bc8e86004f9434abb9","source":"reversing-labs","versions":["1.5.2"]}]},"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"],"type":"FINDER"},{"name":"ReversingLabs","contact":["https://www.reversinglabs.com"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
