A critical malware incident was identified in the npm package polymarket-clob-api. The GitHub Security Advisory (GHSA-95f6-59wp-jpv8) indicates that any computer with this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.\n\nThe advisory recommends immediate rotation of all secrets and keys stored on affected computers 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 the installation.\n\nThis represents a supply chain attack through a compromised npm package with severe implications for system security and data confidentiality.
