Summary
Malicious code in xhjckswqivb (npm)
Details

Package contains only index.html and package.json. The HTML mimics a Cloudflare Turnstile challenge and, when loaded in a browser, assembles an obfuscated URL from the string fragments 'gin.microl' and 'ive.club/' and redirects the visitor to https://login.microlive.club/ with the original query string appended. package.json declares no preinstall/install/postinstall/prepare lifecycle scripts, and main points at the HTML file, so npm install and require do not execute any of this code on the installer. The victim of the artifact is an end-user who visits the served HTML, not a developer who installs the package.

Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.
