MAL-2026-10248: Malicious code in @gt-test-exp/profiler-exp-00000012 (npm)
The npm package '@gt-test-exp/profiler-exp-00000012' contains malicious code that can fully compromise any computer on which it is installed or running. The compromise is severe enough that all secrets and keys stored on the affected system should be rotated immediately from a different, trusted computer. Removing the package alone may not eliminate the malicious software because the attacker may have established persistent control over the system.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This threat involves a malicious npm package '@gt-test-exp/profiler-exp-00000012' identified by MAL-2026-10248. Installation or execution of this package results in a full system compromise, allowing attackers to potentially control the affected computer. The advisory warns that simply uninstalling the package does not guarantee removal of all malicious components, indicating possible persistence mechanisms. There is no CVSS score or detailed technical exploit information available. No patch or remediation is provided beyond removal and secret rotation.
Potential Impact
Full compromise of the affected system, including potential unauthorized access to all stored secrets and keys. The attacker may maintain persistent control even after removal of the malicious package, leading to ongoing risk of data theft or system manipulation.
Mitigation Recommendations
Immediately remove the '@gt-test-exp/profiler-exp-00000012' package from all affected systems. Rotate all secrets and keys stored on the compromised computers from a separate, secure device. Because the attacker may have persistent access, consider rebuilding or thoroughly cleaning affected systems to ensure complete eradication of malicious software.
