The package name suggests a flag-icons library but the shipped code performs only host identifier exfiltration to an anonymous third-party collector; the version 99.99.99 is consistent with a dependency-confusion attempt. Installing the package causes the installer's hostname and OS username to be transmitted to an attacker-controlled endpoint.\n\n---\n\nCredit: OpenSSF (source)","public_affected_ranges":["= 99.99.99"]}],"null_published_at":"2026-11-01T01:45:40.753Z","source_updated_at":"2026-09-21T18:31:44.000Z","source_disclosed_at":"2026-09-21T18:31:36.000Z","is_synthetic_fixture":false,"null_last_reviewed_at":null,"public_change_summary":"First indexed by Null; source disclosure date is shown separately.","null_first_observed_at":"2026-11-01T00:59:31.866Z"}],"next_cursor":null,"snapshot_revision":"44495"}
