Description
The neuralwhatsapp npm package contains malicious code that compromises any computer on which it is installed or running. Installation of this package results in a full system compromise, potentially exposing all stored secrets and keys. Immediate removal of the package is advised, but full remediation may require rotating all secrets from a separate, uncompromised system due to the risk of persistent malicious software.
