Description

The npm package '@sbt_gitverse/analytics-client' versions 99.0.3, 99.0.4, 99.0.5, and 99.0.7 contain malicious code that executes commands associated with harmful behavior. Installation or use of this package can lead to full compromise of the affected computer, potentially exposing all stored secrets and keys. Removal of the package does not guarantee elimination of all malicious software introduced.

Impact

Systems with the affected versions of '@sbt_gitverse/analytics-client' installed or running are considered fully compromised. Attackers may have gained control over the system and access to all stored secrets and keys. This represents a severe security risk, including potential data theft and unauthorized system control.

Defensive guidance

Immediately remove the '@sbt_gitverse/analytics-client' package from affected systems. Rotate all secrets and keys stored on the compromised systems from a separate, secure computer. Due to the possibility of persistent malicious software beyond the package itself, consider conducting a thorough security assessment and remediation of the affected systems.

Summary

The package '@sbt_gitverse/analytics-client' for npm, specifically versions 99.0.3, 99.0.4, 99.0.5, and 99.0.7, has been identified by multiple sources including Amazon Inspector, GHSA Malware, and OpenSSF Package Analysis as containing malicious code. This code executes commands linked to malicious activities, leading to a full compromise of any system where the package is installed or running. The compromise may allow attackers to access secrets and keys stored on the system. Due to the nature of the compromise, simply removing the package may not fully eradicate the malicious presence.
