Summary
Hide ▲
Show ▼
The unofficial postmark-mcp npm package exfiltrated user email traffic in 1.0.16, creating a concrete data leak risk for npm users. The malicious update forwarded emails to giftshop[.]club, while the package had already passed as a near-clone of the official project through 15 iterations. The exposed content may have included password reset requests, two-factor authentication codes, financial information, and customer details. The malicious version stayed online for about a week, recorded around 1,500 downloads, and was later removed.
