Malicious package

Published to npm · OSV MAL-2026-10225

What to do

Remove @logdna-web/shared from every project, lockfile and image that pulls it in. Treat any host that installed it as compromised: rotate the credentials, tokens and keys it could read, from a clean machine.

Description

The @logdna-web/shared npm package is a malicious package published as part of a dependency confusion campaign. It uses a preinstall hook to execute code that collects and sends host telemetry, including public IP and personally identifiable information (PII), to an attacker-controlled Sentry endpoint. The package name mimics a legitimate internal package namespace to trick misconfigured resolvers into installing it. The malicious payload also silently relays application exceptions and PII to the attacker if the package's init function is called without a custom DSN. This package version 13.19.37 is affected. The package should be considered fully compromised if installed, and all secrets on the host should be rotated immediately.

Impact

Installation of this package results in unauthorized exfiltration of host telemetry and personally identifiable information to an attacker-controlled Sentry endpoint. This includes the public IP address, hostname, OS username, runtime environment metadata, and application exceptions if the package is used without supplying a custom DSN. The presence of this package on a system indicates a full compromise, potentially exposing all secrets and keys stored on the host. The attacker can attribute successful installs to specific victim organizations via distinct Sentry project IDs, enabling targeted reconnaissance and profiling.

Defensive guidance

Immediate removal of the @logdna-web/shared package version 13.19.37 is required. All secrets and keys stored on any affected computer should be rotated immediately from a separate, trusted system. Systems with this package installed should be considered fully compromised, and a full incident response and forensic analysis is recommended to identify and remediate any persistent threats. Review and correct any misconfigured package resolvers to prevent dependency confusion attacks. Monitor for and block packages published under deceptive scopes mimicking internal namespaces.

Summary

The @logdna-web/shared package, published under the @logdna-web scope to mimic legitimate internal packages, contains a preinstall hook that runs a script initializing the @sentry/node client with a hardcoded attacker-controlled DSN. This script collects the installer's public IP address and default PII such as hostname and OS username, then deliberately triggers an exception to send this data to the attacker's Sentry project. The package's main module also uses the attacker's DSN as a default, causing any application errors to be silently sent to the attacker if no DSN is supplied. This behavior is consistent with a dependency confusion reconnaissance campaign designed to identify and profile victims by their public IP and environment metadata. The affected version is exactly 13.19.37. There is no indication of an official patch or remediation from the vendor.
