Malicious code in fabric-mod-utils (npm)
GitHub lists this malware advisory for fabric-mod-utils. Published version ranges and source prerequisites are shown below; this is not an inspection of a visitor’s application.
This report has not inspected your inventory, configuration, deployed build, reachability or evidence. A catalog listing and a severity score do not establish exposure or compromise.

source listed= 1.0.0
## Source: amazon-inspector (b3ada8fa4c11f57f6f8bfcf158b33b56d71f6f1433910b981cec70492b2272a9) The package declares scripts.postinstall = 'node index.js'. On install, index.js performs an HTTPS GET to the hardcoded host fabric-npm.gm-service.xyz at path /p and passes the response body to vm.runInContext, executing whatever code the server returns on the installer's machine. The host and path are stored in short obfuscated variables (_h, _p). The package's stated purpose ('Native asset loader bridge for Fabric mod environments') is contradicted by its shipped contents: lib/renderer.js is an inert stub returning no-op { status: "ok" } shader results and has no relationship to the actual install-time behavior. The mod-utility framing functions as cover for an install-time remote-code loader whose payload is attacker-mutable and unpinned. --- Credit: OpenSSF (source)
03 / Response
What to do next
- investigate
Identify the exact component and deployed version, examine the linked publisher’s conditions, and retain evidence of any mitigation.
Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. GitHub Advisory Database
A fixed release is not deployment evidence.
Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
04 / Limits
What this report cannot establish
- Customer inventory, deployment, reachability and exploitation have not been inspected.
05 / Provenance
Sources you can inspect
Each assertion retains its source. Mirrored records may repeat one underlying publisher; additional links are not independent corroboration.
