The 'nottuff26' package in the npm ecosystem is identified as malicious. Installation or execution of this package results in a full compromise of the host system, potentially allowing an attacker complete control. Due to the severity of the compromise, simply uninstalling the package may not remove all malicious components or backdoors introduced. This threat is documented under MAL-2026-10351 and GHSA-gqpp-9m3q-r5pr. No CVSS score or patch information is available.

Any system with the 'nottuff26' package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. Attackers may have gained full control, risking exposure or theft of all stored secrets and keys. The compromise may persist beyond removal of the package, indicating potential persistence mechanisms or additional malware.

Remove the 'nottuff26' package immediately. Rotate all secrets, keys, and credentials stored on the affected system from a secure, uncompromised device. Because full system compromise is likely, consider rebuilding or replacing the affected system to ensure complete remediation. No official patch or fix is available; remediation relies on removal and credential rotation.
