The.npmrc read captures npm auth tokens; the.env reads capture CI and cloud credentials from the installer and any parent project directories. Package metadata is generic (\"internal utilities\") and the 99.0.0 version is consistent with a dependency-confusion lure targeting a private scope name.\n","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"alelo-services"},"versions":["99.0.2","99.0.0"],"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":"preinstall.js","sha256":"b37206713fc25fedb6193f5d1ac2eecf834e826eed4c03b3bc570385a554e28d","tlsh":"b0f084f491a9eab02e7857c0e09aa40296b3e1113b277cf4a9e90249678d1e41172cf6"},{"path":"index.js","sha256":"70a8739590ceacd616e00eef3ccbe975d174c5cf731addb93da8eb7ad8a2fd5f","tlsh":"4311abf452a5b3b06ab556c4e5ee50016263e2023e27b5f0b9ec02556b499b805b3df4"},{"path":"login.ps1","sha256":"d784a3de392836730544da8e2ba25bcaaad2632f0cc8e4b8ce76b5cb4fe82d2b","tlsh":"d7f0a272910a614d3ee4466b00f4f536fd3b133269d4de94a6a916c9f8c195c2972833"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"alelo-services-99.0.2.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"605350cd54e99f86c6310b6c3d7b729a3d31cc27","sha512_sri":"sha512-ecstbC/mMWzFoyfeuYqZ/X/PXFSIlD9kjlmRR61WevnareayotTuLWaBIK8NxpXVJUAKZCKtH3Xbe1fIguGwhA=="}}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/alelo-services/v/99.0.2"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/alelo-services/v/99.0.0"}],"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","type":"FINDER","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"]}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-017730","import_time":"2026-08-14T14:28:03.632503429Z","modified_time":"2026-08-14T14:07:30Z","sha256":"00b5c557931bd8dd68451d2a88f2b69b54f7cba4e0dfcdc338abf5dd95472810","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["99.0.2"]},{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-017758","import_time":"2026-08-14T14:28:06.451618961Z","modified_time":"2026-08-14T14:11:49Z","sha256":"2b31cdc535ad02d3d78533315ef2037d4860699d9c7a161ed96a176082824f07","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["99.0.0"]}]}}
