Description
The npm package 'log-min' version 1.0.13 contains malicious code that impersonates the Theta chain-sdk-js SDK. It executes a postinstall script that decrypts and runs code from a separate dependency 'thedata' using a hardcoded password, enabling arbitrary code execution during installation and when the package is imported.
