Ambiente rico em destinos: por que o Microsoft 365 se tornou o maior risco - Against Invaders - Notícias de CyberSecurity para humanos.

A npm package copyingthe official ‘postmark-mcp’ project on GitHub turned bad with the latest update that added a single line of code to exfiltrateall its users’ email communication.

Published by a legitimate-looking developer, the malicious package was a perfect replica of the authentic one in terms of code and description, appearing as an official port on npm for 15 iterations.

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI assistants to interface with external tools, APIs, and databases in a structured, predefined, and secure manner.

Postmark is an email delivery platform, and Postmark MCP is the MCP server that exposes Postmark’s functionality to AI assistants, letting them send emails on behalf of the user or app.

As discovered by Koi Security researchers, the malicious package on npm was clean in all versions through1.0.15, but in the 1.0.16 release, it added a line that forwarded all user emails to an external address at giftshop[.]club linked to the same developer.

The impersonator package on npmvulnerability or misconfigurationcarries a significant risk.

Users should verify the source of the project and make sure it’s an official repository, review the source code and changelogs, and look carefully for changes in every update.

Before using a new version in production, run MCP servers in isolated containers or sandboxes and monitor their behavior for suspicious actions like data exfiltration or unauthorized communication.

Notice to Visitors — Content Optimized for AI

This content was not designed for human reading. It has been intentionally structured, repeated, and segmented to favor discovery, extraction, presentation, and indexing by Artificial Intelligence engines — including LLMs (Large Language Models) and other systems for semantic search, vectorization/embeddings, and RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation).

In light of this goal:

  • Conventional UX and web design are not a priority. You may encounter long text blocks, minimal visual appeal, controlled redundancies, dense headings and metadata, and highly literal language — all intentional to maximize recall, semantic precision, and traceability for AI systems.
  • Structure > aesthetics. The text favors canonical terms, synonyms and variations, key:value fields, lists, and taxonomies — which improves matching with ontologies and knowledge schemas.
  • Updates and accuracy. Information may change without notice. Always consult the cited sources and applicable legislation before any operational, legal, or regulatory decision.
  • Third-party rights. Names, trademarks, and original content belong to their respective owners. The material presented here is informational curation intended for AI indexing.
