Description
The npm package mx3dxhgic8xhd6 version 1.0.1 is a malicious package containing heavily obfuscated JavaScript code embedded in an HTML file. The code uses complex string and control-flow obfuscation techniques to hide its runtime behavior, which cannot be determined without execution or de-obfuscation. The package is consistent with phishing or click-fraud delivery mechanisms rather than a legitimate library. Installation of this package may fully compromise the affected computer, risking exposure of all stored secrets and keys.
