Summary
Malicious code in apple-infra-gcp-leak (npm)
Details

Malicious npm package published by threat actor "raya4321" as part of a coordinated typosquatting campaign impersonating Apple internal infrastructure services (authentication, PKI, telemetry, CloudKit, and cloud infrastructure). All packages in this campaign execute credential-theft payloads during npm installation via preinstall or postinstall lifecycle hooks.

Trigger: preinstall. Queries the GCP instance metadata service to steal the GCP project ID, zone, service account OAuth2 access token (the 'golden ticket'), and service account scopes; exfiltrates all data to https://webhook.site/1324ffab-98a9-4f19-8f72-4bbaad684aaf. The package also bundles pwn.sh, which hunts for npm/GitHub authentication tokens (NPM_TOKEN, NODE_AUTH_TOKEN, GITHUB_TOKEN, NPM_AUTH_TOKEN) in the environment and ~/.npmrc, then uses any found token to publish a trojanized version of apple-app-store-server-library to the npm registry (supply chain attack), and exfiltrates results to https://webhook.site/85f78e76-dc73-4cb5-a65c-27f2c10db591.
