Source: amazon-inspector (d63f5a2ae5ff88439a658fdc6a0c8de8fa078a068a1d872be6afcfb5d29fb5b6) Package ccsec-form-validator at version 0.0.0-stage contains two files with no detected malicious behavior. No install-time lifecycle scripts, no outbound network calls to attacker-controlled destinations, no credential or environment variable harvesting, no filesystem persistence, and no obfuscated or fetched-and-executed code paths are present. The version suffix and minimal file count are consistent with a placeholder or pre-release stub rather than a functional package.

All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have…

# Patch Next advisory brief: GHSA-r889-j2qv-2jv6 Advisory: Malicious code in ccsec-form-validator (npm) IDs: GHSA-r889-j2qv-2jv6 Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/mal-2026-18348 (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 ccsec-form-validator: affected every version ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - `npm ls ccsec-form-validator --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 ccsec-form-validator. - 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-2026-18348 (OSV record MAL-2026-18348 lists affected ranges: npm ccsec-form-validator >=0) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
