Malicious code in @sec-loans-ui/utils (npm)

0
Critical
Published: 05/20/2026 (05/20/2026, 06:16:35 UTC)
Source: GCVE Database
Product: @sec-loans-ui/utils

Description

The @sec-loans-ui/utils package version 99.9.1 on npm is a malicious package designed as a hollow lure with a minimal stub and a dependency pointing to an attacker-controlled Google Cloud Storage tarball. Installing this package causes execution of attacker-controlled code from a mutable external source, potentially compromising the host environment. Removal of the package may not fully remediate the compromise, and all secrets on affected systems should be rotated.

Technical Analysis

This threat involves a malicious npm package named @sec-loans-ui/utils at version 99.9.1. The package itself is a minimal stub but declares a dependency on a tarball hosted in an anonymous third-party Google Cloud Storage bucket (ltidi.storage.googleapis.com) outside the npm registry and the package's scope. This external tarball can be changed at any time by the attacker, allowing arbitrary code execution during npm install lifecycle scripts. Systems resolving this package as their internal @sec-loans-ui/utils will execute attacker-controlled code, leading to full compromise. The package is a supply chain attack vector leveraging version-racing and dependency confusion techniques.

Potential Impact

Any system that installs or runs this package version is considered fully compromised. The attacker gains arbitrary code execution capabilities, potentially leading to full system control. All secrets and keys stored on the compromised system may be exposed and must be rotated. Removing the package alone does not guarantee removal of all malicious artifacts or backdoors introduced by the attacker.

Mitigation Recommendations

No official patch or fix is available. Immediate removal of the @sec-loans-ui/utils package version 99.9.1 is recommended. All secrets and credentials on affected systems should be rotated from a clean, uncompromised environment. Monitor for any signs of persistent compromise and consider full system remediation or rebuild due to the high risk of persistent attacker control.
