The HTTP response body is then passed to new Function('require', response.data) and invoked with the real require, granting the remote operator arbitrary code execution in the installer's Node.js process. The destination URL is stored as a base64 literal to evade static URL scanners. The package name and file layout mimic the legitimate pino logger while the exported middleware is a no-op, consistent with typosquat delivery.\n","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"eth-pino"},"versions":["2.0.3"],"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/initializeCaller.js","sha256":"6ae47651f95735e18c7370aa04d1577ffbd19c20eed57729c777cac6d4a83f4b","tlsh":"9bf08b5d28ba203942ae64e2bf1b14561453f82232d5d865f7cc836a0f8dd4daaa36d8"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"eth-pino-2.0.3.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"d5e67fb86188a0ab12d45d65ff998a854a9f70c6","sha512_sri":"sha512-jrOyXKD04tP9UfCUVyN8gaN1Zv4bS4w5asFH1MCjSsZtDQKFIWh77GoZ58to++iE2a6Z9BmcrFeJl91kAlO5qg=="}}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/eth-pino/v/2.0.3"}],"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","type":"FINDER","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"]}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-019139","import_time":"2026-08-29T02:22:20.915141318Z","modified_time":"2026-08-29T02:13:50Z","sha256":"81e08c035ca41519f1d57d389027befac80a8ee8405612825b633967db5fb8c1","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["2.0.3"]}]}}
