Description
The npm package '@ai-agent-node/createnode' contains malicious code that compromises any computer on which it is installed or running. The presence of this package indicates a full system compromise, potentially allowing an attacker complete control over the affected machine. Removal of the package alone does not guarantee elimination of all malicious components. Immediate rotation of all secrets and keys stored on the compromised system is strongly advised, using a separate, trusted device.
