Description
The npm package 'rnx-align-deps' contains malicious code that can fully compromise any computer on which it is installed or running. The compromise may allow an attacker to gain full control over the affected system, potentially exposing all stored secrets and keys. Immediate removal of the package and rotation of all secrets from a different, uncompromised computer is strongly recommended. There is no guarantee that removing the package will eliminate all malicious software introduced by it.
