Malware NodeJS mengambil informasi IP, nama pengguna, dan nama perangkat di GitHub

October 4, 2020 by Winnie the Pooh

Beberapa paket NodeJS yang sarat dengan kode berbahaya telah terlihat di registri npm.

Paket “typosquatting” ini tidak memiliki tujuan selain mengumpulkan data dari perangkat pengguna dan menyiarkannya di halaman GitHub publik.
Penemuan ini ditemukan oleh sistem deteksi malware otomatis Sonatype dan diselidiki lebih lanjut oleh tim Riset Keamanan perusahaan yang termasuk saya.
Paket yang sebelumnya ada di registry npm open source termasuk:

1. electorn (kesalahan eja yang disengaja dari paket “electron” yang sah)
2. loadyaml
3. loadyml.dll
4. lodashs (kesalahan eja yang disengaja dari paket “lodash” yang sah)

Keempat paket diterbitkan oleh pengguna yang sama “simplelive12” dan sekarang telah dihapus, dengan dua paket pertama telah dihapus oleh npm per 1 Oktober 2020. Dua paket sebelumnya tidak dipublikasikan oleh pembuatnya sendiri.

Setelah instal, electron menjalankan skrip di latar belakang setiap jam yang mengumpulkan IP pengguna yang masuk, data geolokasi, nama pengguna, jalur ke direktori home, dan informasi model CPU.

Sampai saat ini, keempat paket telah mencetak lebih dari 400 total unduhan.

Tidak jelas apa tujuan pengumpulan data ini dan mengapa itu dipublikasikan di web agar dunia dapat melihatnya, namun, insiden seperti ini menyoroti potensi serangan typosquatting pada ekosistem open-source.
