Description
The npm package motion-pull@2.3.5 impersonates the legitimate pino logger and contains malicious code that exfiltrates environment variables to a remote server. It then executes arbitrary code received from that server with full module-loading capabilities, enabling remote code execution (RCE) and credential theft. This behavior effectively compromises any system running this package.
