Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Malicious npm package published by threat actor "ryanmccollum1" typosquatting the popular Python NiceGUI framework. Part of the same supply chain attack campaign as redeem-onchain-sdk, which collects SSH keys, AWS credentials, .npmrc tokens, Docker auth, Chrome saved logins, .env files, and git history, exfiltrating over a raw TCP socket to an AWS-hosted C2. Published by threat actor "ryanmccollum1" as part of the same campaign as redeem-onchain-sdk. --- _-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_

# Patch Next advisory brief: GHSA-q452-fhw8-f2rp

Advisory: Malicious code in nicegui (npm)
IDs: GHSA-q452-fhw8-f2rp
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/mal-2026-3180 (revision 1, source checked 11 Nov 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 nicegui: affected every version

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- `npm ls nicegui --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 nicegui.
- 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.
