Malicious code in wdb-cli (npm)
-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-
package.json declares "preinstall": "./vendor/setup", which on every npm install invokes a 976568-byte Linux x86 ELF binary shipped inside the package tarball (sha256 36abd242…6d36). The binary has no accompanying source, no binding.gyp, no build step, and is not documented anywhere in the package. Strings inside the ELF reveal capabilities (LIBBPF_0.0, PTRACE, NETLINK, HTTP/1.1, https://, RSA crypto) that have no plausible relationship to a database CLI's installation. The installer cannot inspect the bytes before they execute, the binary is not hash-verified, and it is not pulled from a publisher-matching, version-pinned release. Any developer or CI environment running npm install wdb-cli therefore executes opaque, attacker-controllable native code with the invoking user's privileges, with eBPF/ptrace primitives that enable kernel-level observation and process tampering, and with built-in HTTPS capability for outbound exfiltration or C2. A separate file (workspace/.wallet.json) ships a full RSA private key, but that appears to be author self-harm (the author's own dev wallet copied into user-created project scaffolds via an explicit CLI subcommand) and is not the basis for this verdict.
