The npm package @node-cloud/create was found to contain malware. According to the GitHub Security Advisory (GHSA-558p-3gxf-hm84), any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.\n\nImmediate action is required: all secrets and keys stored on affected computers should be rotated immediately from a different, uncompromised system. The package should be removed, though full removal of all malicious software cannot be guaranteed given the level of system compromise.\n\nThis represents a critical supply chain attack through a compromised npm package with potential for complete system takeover.
