Extracted account names, access tokens, and refresh tokens are POSTed via https.request to a hardcoded webhook whose URL is RC4-decoded at runtime. A companion sendInfo() call ships os.hostname(), os.userInfo().username, os.platform()/os.release(), and the recovered Minecraft username to the same endpoint. None of this behavior is part of the package's advertised 'asset loader bridge' purpose, and the obfuscation deliberately conceals both the exfiltration functions and the destination URL.\n\n## Source: ossf-package-analysis (b8b7dfd84b1d2aedd80305d5a09d855ef0e44d02e173c3c3ebe115b03291445d)\nThe OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified 'fabric-asset-pipeline' @ 1.0.0 (npm) as malicious.\n\nIt is considered malicious because:\n\n- The package communicates with a domain associated with malicious activity.\n","affected":[{"package":{"name":"fabric-asset-pipeline","ecosystem":"npm"},"versions":["1.0.1","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"},{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"}],"indicators":{"evidence_files":[{"path":"index.js","sha256":"fbb0310ad9c6e1dd51a33c4cd6a308819ca079a3a3cefcee443e587104df23b2","tlsh":"71b1b65695e25566023bf2b81e1b926a7276b7133249cc7c75acd2d40f2e43c17b328c"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"fabric-asset-pipeline-1.0.1.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"9bc409dcc449c98f4a36ae1e868b006b3e357410","sha512_sri":"sha512-3q/ciCtT/sfaevELPe4itz6an9zjFUCM9NGRvM4LwHwiLAxG9wiq83sYCz9XKdSIfaxmyF0veBRssrTrolfu6w=="}}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/fabric-asset-pipeline/v/1.0.1"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/fabric-asset-pipeline/v/1.0.0"}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-020587","import_time":"2026-09-28T18:24:38.244113777Z","modified_time":"2026-09-28T18:02:57Z","sha256":"91f1a39d9b2973128a011604fd549db31ce81fc9929ff1a1066a21f89a2d1607","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["1.0.1"]},{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-020589","import_time":"2026-09-28T18:24:38.422326484Z","modified_time":"2026-09-28T18:03:18Z","sha256":"bb92787d766d5bfa0c384cc04909689215fa0d3e869630422caa8bedd303038a","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["1.0.0"]},{"import_time":"2026-10-01T05:44:26.582510187Z","modified_time":"2026-09-28T16:37:36Z","sha256":"b8b7dfd84b1d2aedd80305d5a09d855ef0e44d02e173c3c3ebe115b03291445d","source":"ossf-package-analysis","versions":["1.0.0"]},{"import_time":"2026-10-01T05:44:26.391871849Z","modified_time":"2026-09-28T16:53:02Z","sha256":"fa6e7162e63221ce71e970b777b1704f111d3df7c724f274f62cdbb2ed6d623d","source":"ossf-package-analysis","versions":["1.0.1"]}]},"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"],"type":"FINDER"},{"name":"OpenSSF: Package Analysis","contact":["https://github.com/ossf/package-analysis","https://openssf.slack.com/channels/package_analysis"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
