Description
The npm package 'ratelimitsucks10' contains malicious code that fully compromises any computer on which it is installed or running. The compromise includes potential unauthorized access to all secrets and keys stored on the affected system. Removing the package alone does not guarantee removal of all malicious software, as the attacker may have established persistent control. Immediate rotation of all secrets and keys from a separate, uncompromised system is strongly recommended.
