Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
npm uninstall @thone33/react-helpers

What this malware does

Package @thone33/[email protected] was scanned and no a static rule matches or behavioral findings were produced. No evidence of credential access, environment scraping, install-time network fetch-and-execute, lifecycle script abuse, silent relay, backdoor, or dependency-tree hijack is present in the analyzed contents.

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 stealer
  1. Find it

    Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for @thone33/react-helpers (5 malicious versions).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    @thone33/react-helpers 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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If @thone33/react-helpers was installed, its post-install payload may already have run. Removing the package does not undo that — check outbound connections and credential use from the install window onward.

Frequently asked questions

No. @thone33/react-helpers on npm has been identified as a malicious package (versions 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.0.2, 1.0.3, 1.0.4 flagged). It should be removed immediately — do not install or keep it in your dependency tree.
