  • dowload_ebok_river_of_time_by_naomi_judd_marcia_wilkie_i1ze3

A malicious npm package with the name dowload_ebok_river_of_time_by_naomi_judd_marcia_wilkie_i1ze3 was identified and published to the npm registry. According to the GitHub Advisory (GHSA-gmw4-2r8x-wcrh), any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.

The advisory indicates that all secrets and keys stored on affected computers should be rotated immediately from a different, uncompromised system. While the package should be removed, the advisory notes that full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, meaning removal of the package alone may not eliminate all malicious software that resulted from installation.

The package appears to be a typosquatted or deceptively named package (mimicking an e-book download), a common distribution vector for malware in the npm ecosystem.
