On `npm install`, npm resolves this URL, downloads whatever tarball bytes the host returns, and installs them — running any lifecycle scripts contained in that tarball — with no version pin, no integrity check, and no publisher verification. The shipped package content is an inert stub, so the manifest line itself is the entire published surface: the code that actually executes on installers comes from repo.securityctrl.com at install time and can change at any moment. The self-referential dependency name (dependency-confusion shape) and an implausibly high version (45.0.0) are consistent with a package designed to win resolution against an internal package of the same name.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (606415bae266f82bcf07f51c292c17d3e5a555ebc12535ec4902b71124b8f849)\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":"one-intuit-help-system-utils","ecosystem":"npm"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["45.0.0"],"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":"package.json","sha256":"207b95be9d1526cb8ffc39e08ca239962662f4565982d4e293cdee13c9b62563","tlsh":"82e026510f124a331ac558c6a83d545bf2a46f1b0444bc9c93cb211ce16d9f3aafbb6f"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"one-intuit-help-system-utils-45.0.0.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"929f17f1b06dfd8c42bd5808a282759abd239945","sha512_sri":"sha512-cp89t4h46aMGVIZzX0WgHULCgM59PKdrZW+pyV7dtJfsJcdg4c5jQ9wvjMqDDwIegEvq6wpMrCL6HMkG528luA=="}}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/one-intuit-help-system-utils/v/45.0.0"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-93c7-v93p-97cw"}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-019078","import_time":"2026-08-28T23:14:36.695559318Z","modified_time":"2026-08-28T23:12:56Z","sha256":"4c22e9eaa97b1ee548e6ca6ac6257ea72fed0ee92d5b54255781e62b8ae19783","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["45.0.0"]},{"id":"GHSA-93c7-v93p-97cw","import_time":"2026-08-29T18:26:29.9536665Z","modified_time":"2026-08-29T18:13:36Z","ranges":[{"events":[{"introduced":"0"}],"type":"SEMVER"}],"sha256":"606415bae266f82bcf07f51c292c17d3e5a555ebc12535ec4902b71124b8f849","source":"ghsa-malware"}]},"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
