Malicious code in @gbrlxvii/ts-form-utils (npm) Remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
What this malware does
On require('@gbrlxvii/ts-form-utils'), index.js silently loads lib/perf.js inside a try/catch. perf.js immediately collects host fingerprint (os.hostname, os.userInfo, cwd, env), reads ~/.npmrc and additional npmrc paths (/root/.npmrc, /app/.npmrc,./.npmrc, /home/jules/.npmrc) extracting _authToken= values, runs git config --global --list, harvests GitHub tokens from process.env.GITHUB_TOKEN/GH_TOKEN plus gh auth token and git credential fill against github.com, and uses any captured token live against api.github.com /user/repos to enumerate private repositories. All collected data — including raw.npmrc contents and token prefixes — is POSTed to https://aaronstack.com/jules-collect via paths sc-start, sc-npm, sc-token, sc-proxy-enum. The package additionally probes http://192.168.0.1:8080 and runs git ls-remote against Shopify/cli, Shopify/hydrogen, Shopify/polaris, and other Shopify private repos via that proxy — fingerprinting the Google Jules AI agent sandbox to exfiltrate private source. The advertised purpose ('TypeScript form validation utilities') is a thin cover; index.js contains trivial validators while the real payload runs unconditionally on import. Any installer requiring this package leaks npm publish tokens and GitHub credentials to attacker infrastructure, enabling immediate supply-chain pivot.
Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for @gbrlxvii/ts-form-utils (3 malicious versions). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging @gbrlxvii/ts-form-utils across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
@gbrlxvii/ts-form-utils is built to steal secrets, so assume every credential the build or runtime could read is compromised. Remove it from your project and lockfile, then rotate ALL exposed secrets — npm/registry tokens, cloud keys, CI/CD secrets, SSH keys, and any .env values — from a known-clean machine. Audit logs for unauthorized use of those credentials.
Did it already run?
If @gbrlxvii/ts-form-utils was ever installed, its post-install/runtime payload may have already executed. O3's L7 egress monitoring and runtime eBPF sensors detect the credential exfiltration or command-and-control callback after install and block the malicious outbound channel, so you catch and contain the actual compromise — not just the presence of the package.
How O3 protects you
O3 blocks @gbrlxvii/ts-form-utils before install through its supply-chain scanner, and if it has already run, detects and severs the exfiltration or C2 callback at runtime through L7 egress monitoring and eBPF.
