Malicious code in @dbbhk/ui-components (npm)
GitHub lists this malware advisory for @dbbhk/ui-components. 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: amazon-inspector (478839dda68d2c5eefa1a55557602d4b12396c988211b28d785af531d0b19d07) @dbbhk/ui-components@99.0.0 declares both preinstall and postinstall hooks in package.json that execute `node callback.js`, so the payload runs automatically on `npm install`. callback.js queries the AWS instance metadata service at 169.254.169.254 for IAM role credentials, reads ECS task-role credentials via AWS_CONTAINER_CREDENTIALS_RELATIVE_URI, iterates process.env harvesting variables matching AWS/SECRET/KEY/TOKEN/PASSWORD/CREDENTIAL/AUTH/API/NPM/GITHUB/GITLAB patterns, and reads credential files including ~/.aws/credentials, /root/.aws/credentials, ~/.npmrc,.env,.npmrc, and the Kubernetes service-account token at /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token. It also collects host reconnaissance (hostname, whoami, id, platform, cwd, home directory, and CI-provider fingerprint for GitHub Actions/GitLab/Jenkins). Collected data is POSTed via https.request to api.telegram.org/bot/sendMessage against a hardcoded Telegram bot and chat id 1064260758. The package name and scope impersonate an HSBC internal component (dependency-confusion shape with an implausibly high 99.0.0 v
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.
