A critical malware incident has been identified in the npm package typeorm-encrypt, disclosed via GitHub Advisory GHSA-f7h6-4xj8-8qh7 on June 11, 2026.\n\nAny computer with typeorm-encrypt installed or running should be considered fully compromised. The malware grants outside entities full control of affected systems, potentially exposing all secrets and keys stored on those machines.\n\nImmediate action is required: all secrets and keys should be rotated from a different, unaffected computer. While the package should be removed, complete removal of all malicious software cannot be guaranteed due to the level of system compromise.\n\nThis is an active incident affecting the npm ecosystem.
