Source: amazon-inspector (7c9c9d92d65945abec57f269176d5080795ae9d832ab6f95525756cd508951bb) The package's index.js contains occurrences of the token 'ping' across several lines (19, 526, 656, 690, 980), which triggered a pattern rule for network/command co-occurrence. No concrete installer-harm behavior is identifiable from this signal alone: there is no named attacker-controlled destination, no read of installer secrets (home-directory credential paths, environment scraping), no install-time or import-time fetch-and-execute, no lifecycle script coupling, and no silent-relay of caller-supplied data. The matched token is consistent with ordinary network diagnostics, latency measurement, or string references rather than a specific exfiltration or C2 path.

# Patch Next advisory brief: GHSA-x94m-hxm5-m298

Advisory: Malicious code in dsh-native (npm)
IDs: GHSA-x94m-hxm5-m298
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/mal-2026-18315 (revision 2, source checked 30 Oct 2026, 06:05 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Unrated
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor response not established. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- npm dsh-native: affected >= 1.4.1, <= 1.4.1

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- `npm ls dsh-native --all`: lists every installed copy and version, including transitive ones. Run in the project root after `npm ci`.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on dsh-native.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.

## Sources
- Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/MAL-2026-18315 (OSV record MAL-2026-18315 lists affected ranges: npm dsh-native >=1.4.1 <=1.4.1)
