MAL-2026-6804: Malicious code in bigint.os (npm)

0
Critical
Published: 07/06/2026 (07/06/2026, 18:51:01 UTC)
Source: GCVE Database
Product: bigint.os

Description

The bigint.os npm package versions 5.0.5 through 5.0.8 contain malicious code that compromises any computer on which it is installed. The presence of this package indicates a full system compromise, requiring immediate secret and key rotation from a different machine. Removing the package alone does not guarantee removal of all malicious software introduced.

Technical Analysis

The bigint.os package versions =5.0.5, =5.0.6, =5.0.7, and =5.0.8 distributed via npm contain malicious code that fully compromises affected systems. Installation of these versions can lead to complete control by an attacker, necessitating secret and key rotation from a separate trusted environment. Due to the nature of the compromise, simply uninstalling the package may not eliminate all malicious artifacts or backdoors.

Potential Impact

Systems with any of the affected bigint.os versions installed should be considered fully compromised. Attackers may have gained complete control, potentially exposing all stored secrets and keys. This level of compromise requires immediate security incident response, including key rotation from a secure environment and thorough system remediation.

Mitigation Recommendations

Remove the affected bigint.os package versions immediately. Rotate all secrets and keys from a different, uncompromised computer. Because full system compromise is possible, additional forensic analysis and remediation may be necessary beyond package removal. No official patch or fix is indicated; therefore, avoid using these versions entirely.
