Source: amazon-inspector (21c91b39929f03c30e501726fc2d1c1fa43f17bf2ed77bda52380e563c1171e0) The package advertises itself as a zero-runtime CSS theming kit but on require/import executes a chain of obfuscated JavaScript modules. lib.mjs imports tokens.mjs, which top-level imports cache-warm.mjs — a ~279KB single-line file consisting of a hex-named string array of XOR/base64-encoded blobs decoded at runtime. Three additional sibling modules of the same shape (build-cache.mjs ~203KB, cache-sweep.mjs ~295KB, workspaces.js ~290KB) are shipped and listed in the published files manifest. Alongside the JavaScript loader, the tarball bundles prebuilt N-API native binaries at native/{linux,darwin,win32}/{arm64,x64}/cache-probe.node whose exported symbols implement extensive hypervisor, container, and sandbox detection (VMDetect/VMDetector classes, hypervisor_bit, qemu_fw_cfg, systemd_virt, dockerenv, bluestacks, vbox_module,…

# Patch Next advisory brief: GHSA-fh55-fq5h-h352 Advisory: Malicious code in postcss-semantic-themes (npm) IDs: GHSA-fh55-fq5h-h352 Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/mal-2026-18334 (revision 2, source checked 30 Oct 2026, 06:00 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 postcss-semantic-themes: affected every version ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - `npm ls postcss-semantic-themes --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 postcss-semantic-themes. - 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-2026-18334 (OSV record MAL-2026-18334 lists affected ranges: npm postcss-semantic-themes >=0) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
