Numeric-integer encoding of the destination hides the address from string/URL scanners. The shipped index.js is a two-line no-op stub and the README does not mention any network activity, so the package's only material behavior on npm install is credential harvesting.\n","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"@quantixfinance/tron"},"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":"tron-1.0.0.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"c03405956f4954dc5a7c9655d76f7394dbf37947","sha512_sri":"sha512-YaMtDEkYdpEXEoFG9I/Qp0Pvif8U8+DRuNj/zEln5B3swJzu12v2IdF1uvzhhkGlnlXA9fHsBtit8bXxB5WZ7Q=="}}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/@quantixfinance/tron/v/1.0.0"}],"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","type":"FINDER","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"]}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-019372","import_time":"2026-09-03T16:19:43.616539153Z","modified_time":"2026-09-03T15:52:17Z","sha256":"dcf106f622a8d60232e7d296737eab7e44ffc42a598f40b4b2afea24aaa15f7c","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["1.0.0"]}]}}
