Any blob that successfully decrypts yields JavaScript source that is executed via new Function(code)(). Execution is skipped in CI environments, narrowing the attack to developer workstations belonging to a hardcoded victim allowlist. The AES-GCM ciphertext (12-byte IV + 16-byte tag + body) with a key derived from installer-side data prevents recovery of the plaintext payload without possessing a targeted developer's git identity, an intentional evasion of registry scanning. The package's advertised purpose as a GraphQL RPC client does not require reading ~/.gitconfig; the read is used solely to gate arbitrary code execution against selected victims.\n","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"sui-graphql-rpc"},"versions":["1.0.1"],"database_specific":{"cwes":[{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"}],"indicators":{"evidence_files":[{"path":"lib/telemetry.js","sha256":"b5487ea4d993e185ba67e45aa7b2354d0ed513d4907e36d785b1a7618adc127a","tlsh":"ad429f9e53d17e2253ebf5f18126281eb06190937c55e7b02d2e9b6d0fc9d3041b39e5"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"sui-graphql-rpc-1.0.1.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"4a266c9c48bbf6b0f56a631dca31d929cbfcfbf2","sha512_sri":"sha512-YAj35wD2TnFvPA9RBRvl0VnOjm+lg6EeAKL3hq5BdbtrktnIyou4QS7gUgYQsEy7jOKMmoOoFtxYdaSJZyU64w=="}}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/sui-graphql-rpc/v/1.0.1"}],"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","type":"FINDER","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"]}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-018314","import_time":"2026-08-19T02:57:23.603682312Z","modified_time":"2026-08-19T02:54:28Z","sha256":"ba4994f544d3df11fa82980f25dc29e379f25a3e03fdbf9a448e995a75ac76a7","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["1.0.1"]}]}}
