A malicious npm package named tivo-codelib-a has been identified and published to the npm registry. The package contains malware that compromises any system on which it is installed.\n\nAccording to the GitHub Advisory (GHSA-4f5g-pqjq-3mvw), any computer with this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. The malware grants outside entities potential full control of affected systems.\n\nImmediate remediation requires rotating all secrets and keys from a separate, uncompromised computer, and removing the package. However, due to the level of system compromise, removal of the package alone may not eliminate all malicious software that was installed as a result.\n\nUsers should assume complete system compromise and take appropriate incident response measures."
