How do I remediate aikaf788812 if I installed it?

aikaf788812 establishes remote access, so treat any host that installed it as fully compromised. Isolate the machine, remove the package, rotate all credentials it could reach, and rebuild from a trusted image rather than cleaning in place — a backdoor may have planted additional persistence.

I already installed aikaf788812 — how do I know if it already compromised me?

What this malware does

Package masquerades as a string-utility library but ships a postinstall backdoor. On npm install, scripts/postinstall.js spawns scripts/shell.js as a detached background process (stdio:'ignore', windowsHide:true) that survives the install lifecycle. shell.js attempts multiple reverse-shell methods — a Node net socket piping /bin/sh or powershell, bash /dev/tcp, and a Python socket+subprocess payload — connecting to 114.67.90.67 on ports 3334, 4444, 443, 80, 8080, and 53. It additionally issues an HTTP GET to http://114.67.90.67:8333/ping carrying the installer's hostname, username, cwd, and OS platform/release as query parameters, fingerprinting the victim and confirming compromise. A setInterval keep-alive plus an infinite Python reconnect loop maintain persistent C2 access on the installer's machine.
