Malicious code in @gleamkit/probe (npm)
The npm package @gleamkit/probe version 0.0.1 is identified as containing malicious code. Although automated analysis found no suspicious behaviors such as remote fetches or credential scraping, the package is flagged by a malware advisory as fully compromising any system where it is installed. Removal of the package does not guarantee elimination of all malicious software, and any secrets or keys on the affected system should be rotated immediately from a different machine.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The @gleamkit/probe npm package at version 0.0.1 is classified as malicious by the GHSA malware advisory MAL-2026-6306. Despite no detected suspicious behaviors by Amazon Inspector, the package is considered a supply-chain threat that can fully compromise a host system. The advisory warns that installation may grant an external attacker full control, necessitating secret rotation and system remediation beyond simple package removal. No CVSS score or exploit in the wild is reported.
Potential Impact
Any computer with @gleamkit/probe version 0.0.1 installed should be considered fully compromised. Attackers may have gained full control, risking exposure of all stored secrets and keys. Removal of the package alone may not eradicate all malicious components introduced by the package.
Mitigation Recommendations
Remove the @gleamkit/probe package version 0.0.1 immediately. Rotate all secrets and keys stored on the affected system from a separate, trusted machine. Conduct a thorough system investigation and remediation, as removing the package may not fully eliminate the compromise. No official patch or fix is available; the package itself should be considered malicious and avoided.
