The numeric-integer form of the hostname evades trivial IP/URL string scanners. The behavior fires automatically on `npm install`, so any environment with wallet mnemonics, cloud credentials, or CI tokens in its environment will have those values shipped to the hardcoded endpoint before any package code is otherwise used.\n","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"@quantixfinance/common"},"versions":["1.0.0"],"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":"preinstall.js","sha256":"5ba35e7025a373dac1380e610b797be1612a10b86f792fe5118e4f25ee688686","tlsh":"8e21ba4af5bcf3b641a252b450cbc021a97fa40323c189a76b7c41d5ff468dc65634bb"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"common-1.0.0.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"ebde8848e1a0eaa1c8720283b050982677178d96","sha512_sri":"sha512-KItnon5y0pA4e0cT3qAo7wWZGSLbVXM0MCA5BS6XFMBo2T13LAzHM76/9d/iZlCzIYhyFownt8WD0nmGZCWu/A=="}}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/@quantixfinance/common/v/1.0.0"}],"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","type":"FINDER","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"]}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-019371","import_time":"2026-09-03T16:19:43.479816703Z","modified_time":"2026-09-03T15:52:08Z","sha256":"be7f05a2980d77035384d4d27df1058513e5cd1cff50fb5ce040e85986fe0231","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["1.0.0"]}]}}
