MAL-2026-10693: Malicious code in claude-token-tracker-mcp (npm)
The npm package 'claude-token-tracker-mcp' contains malicious code that fully compromises 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 machine. Removal of the package alone does not guarantee elimination of all malicious software introduced by it, as the attacker may have gained full control of the system.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The 'claude-token-tracker-mcp' package in the npm ecosystem is identified as malicious. Installation or execution of this package results in a full system compromise, potentially allowing an attacker complete control over the affected computer. Due to the severity of the compromise, all stored secrets and keys must be rotated from a secure environment. The package removal is necessary but insufficient to fully remediate the infection, as persistent malicious components may remain.
Potential Impact
Complete compromise of any computer with the package installed or running. Potential exposure and theft of all stored secrets and keys. Persistent malicious presence may remain even after package removal, indicating a high risk of ongoing unauthorized access and control.
Mitigation Recommendations
Immediately remove the 'claude-token-tracker-mcp' package from all affected systems. Rotate all secrets and keys stored on compromised machines from a separate, secure computer. Conduct a thorough investigation and remediation of the affected systems, as removal of the package alone does not guarantee full eradication of the malicious software.
