Malicious @apexacc/cli npm package hijacks AI coding agents

critical severity · published 2026-10-26

The package is a repackaged coding agent seeded by a fake Web3 accelerator that redirects your AI agent's traffic (prompts, files read, tool results) to attacker infrastructure. It also plants an attacker-controlled remote MCP server and weakens tool approval, so the attacker can drive your coding agent remotely.
