Malicious code in clxofwfjskaz7 (npm)
The npm package 'clxofwfjskaz7' version 1.0.0 contains malicious code embedded in an HTML file that renders a fake Cloudflare interstitial page and redirects browsers to a constructed URL using obfuscated JavaScript. This malicious behavior does not execute during npm install or require in Node.js environments, but targets browsers loading the package via npm-backed CDNs. Systems with this package installed may be fully compromised, and secrets or keys on those systems should be rotated immediately. Removal of the package alone may not fully remediate the compromise.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The npm package 'clxofwfjskaz7' version 1.0.0 includes a tarball with only a package.json and an index.html file. The package.json specifies 'index.html' as the main entry point but does not include any lifecycle scripts, so no code executes during installation or module loading in Node.js. The index.html file displays a fake Cloudflare 'Just a moment...' interstitial page and, upon a Turnstile callback, runs obfuscated JavaScript that constructs a URL and redirects the browser via window.location.assign. This malicious payload targets browsers accessing the package through npm-backed CDNs like unpkg, not developers installing the package. The package is considered fully compromising to any system where it is installed or running, necessitating immediate secret rotation and removal.
Potential Impact
Any computer with this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. Attackers may have gained full control over the system, potentially exposing all stored secrets and keys. Simply removing the package does not guarantee removal of all malicious artifacts or backdoors introduced by the package. The threat primarily affects environments where the package's HTML is loaded in browsers via npm-backed CDNs, enabling redirection to potentially malicious sites.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or fix is available. Immediate removal of the 'clxofwfjskaz7' package version 1.0.0 is recommended. All secrets and keys stored on affected systems should be rotated from a separate, uncompromised device. Due to the potential full system compromise, further forensic analysis and remediation may be necessary beyond package removal.
