Malicious code in mdb-vite (npm)

Any consumer that imports the package and invokes the default export runs attacker-controlled code with the installer's Node privileges — enabling arbitrary payload delivery, credential theft, persistence, or downstream compromise. Additional misdirection: the package name `mdb-vite` evokes MDBootstrap/Vite tooling, keywords are `react, helper, svg`, the README titles itself `polymarket-clob-api`, and package.json describes it as a Polymarket CLOB SDK — none of which match the code, which only fetches and evals remote JavaScript. A `bearrtoken: 'logo'` header and an unused CDN-provider map (cloudflare/fastly/akamai/cloudfront) are decoys to make the loader appear CDN-related. ## Source: ghsa-malware (5e2c6b3eff8c409ee862db83e5d1211582cd14238384a89c0bc6b31b16fbead7) Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The 'mdb-vite' package in the npm ecosystem is identified as malicious software. Installation or execution of this package results in a full system compromise, potentially granting an attacker complete control over the affected machine. Due to the severity of the compromise, simply uninstalling the package may not remove all malicious artifacts. The advisory recommends rotating all secrets and keys from a separate, uncompromised system to mitigate ongoing risk.
Potential Impact
Any system with the 'mdb-vite' package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. Attackers may have gained full control, risking exposure or theft of all stored secrets and keys. The integrity and confidentiality of the affected system cannot be assured until remediation steps are taken.
Mitigation Recommendations
Remove the 'mdb-vite' package immediately. Rotate all secrets and keys stored on the compromised system from a different, secure computer. Because the system may remain compromised even after removal, consider rebuilding or thoroughly cleaning the affected machine to ensure all malicious software is eradicated. No official patch or fix is available as this is a malicious package rather than a vulnerability in legitimate software.
