Description

The npm package 'alelo-api' versions 99.0.0 and 99.0.2 contain malicious code that executes during installation. It collects sensitive environment information, including hostname, username, environment variables, and secret files such as .env and .npmrc, then exfiltrates this data to a hardcoded IP address. This behavior indicates a typosquatting or dependency confusion attack targeting the Alelo organization. No official patch or remediation guidance is provided.
