bigint.fsnpm
Malicious code in bigint.fs (npm) Remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
What this malware does
On require()/import, index.js runs an IIFE that POSTs a getAccountInfo RPC call to https://api.devnet.solana.com for Solana account 4WF8QCFEnVD7BLs3QAVe2SjxRZ4n3EboCsdhj363VAqZ, base64-decodes the returned account data, reads a length prefix at offset 32, extracts the payload bytes at offset 36, and passes the resulting UTF-8 source to new Function('require','module','exports', src) — executing arbitrary JavaScript with the full privileges of the importing Node.js process. The payload is mutable (the attacker can rewrite the on-chain account data at any time), unpinned, not hash- or signature-verified, and delivered from infrastructure the attacker controls. The use of a public blockchain RPC endpoint as a C2 channel is designed to evade simple domain/IP blocking while remaining fully attacker-rewritable. The package name masquerades as a BigInt/filesystem utility; there is no legitimate reason for such a library to fetch and eval remote code on load.

Detection & response playbook
Backdoor / remote accessFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for bigint.fs (version 5.0.6). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging bigint.fs across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
bigint.fs 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.
Did it already run?
If bigint.fs 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 bigint.fs 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.
