The npm package @sqlite-tag/sql-creator has been identified as containing malware. According to the GitHub Security Advisory (GHSA-6vr8-7f3x-9c9r), any computer with this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.\n\nThe advisory indicates that all secrets and keys stored on affected computers should be rotated immediately from a different, uncompromised system.
