      "value": "react-tracked provides state usage tracking with Proxies. Between 2026-05-18 19:26:36 and 2026-05-19 15:22:45, the default branch contained malicious commits 6978272a7d6ca02225cb747ea69f427512e33699 through 949f1a3d6bb1ff7d1a0dec892afd773e742627e8 that executed remote attacker-controlled code on developer machines during `npm install`. The commits were removed by force-push, but local clones, forks, and direct-SHA URLs may still contain them, and `npm install` against an affected checkout will still execute the code today. The package was not published to npm. `src/install.js` was added and wired into the `postinstall` script. It fetched a JavaScript payload from an attacker-controlled HTTPS endpoint (configurable via an environment variable), disabled TLS verification, and evaluated the response as code with `require` available. Execution was deliberately skipped on CI and cloud/serverless environments, targeting developer workstations. The second-stage payload was attacker-hosted and cannot be reconstructed. Assume full compromise of anything reachable from a Node process with the user's permissions. Those who ran `npm install` against an affected checkout on a developer machine on or after 2026-05-18 19:26:36 should treat the machine as compromised, rotate every credential the machine could reach, audit account activity** since 2026-05-18 19:26:36, and clean local clones."

Entre 2026-05-18 19:26:36 y 2026-05-19 15:22:45, la rama predeterminada contenía commits maliciosos 6978272a7d6ca02225cb747ea69f427512e33699 hasta 949f1a3d6bb1ff7d1a0dec892afd773e742627e8 que ejecutaban código remoto controlado por el atacante en máquinas de desarrolladores durante ’npm install’. Los commits fueron eliminados mediante force-push, pero los clones locales, las bifurcaciones y las URLs de SHA directo aún pueden contenerlos, y ’npm install’ contra un checkout afectado aún ejecutará el código hoy. El paquete no fue publicado en npm. ’src/install.js’ fue añadido y conectado al script ’postinstall’. Recuperó una carga útil de JavaScript desde un endpoint HTTPS controlado por el atacante (configurable mediante una variable de entorno), deshabilitó la verificación TLS y evaluó la respuesta como código con ’require’ disponible. La ejecución fue omitida deliberadamente en entornos de CI y de nube/sin servidor, apuntando a estaciones de trabajo de desarrolladores. La carga útil de segunda etapa estaba alojada por el atacante y no puede ser reconstruida. Asuma un compromiso total de cualquier cosa accesible desde un proceso de Node con los permisos del usuario. Aquellos que ejecutaron ’npm install’ contra un checkout afectado en una máquina de desarrollador en o después del 2026-05-18 19:26:36 deben tratar la máquina como comprometida, rotar cada credencial a la que la máquina pudo acceder, auditar la actividad de la cuenta desde el 2026-05-18 19:26:36, y limpiar los clones locales."
