clxofwfjskaz7npm
Advisory published Updated
clxofwfjskaz7 is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-13794) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 1.0.0). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in clxofwfjskaz7 (npm)
What this malware does
The tarball contains only package.json and index.html. package.json declares main: index.html and no lifecycle scripts (preinstall/install/postinstall/prepare). index.html renders a fake Cloudflare 'Just a moment...' interstitial and, on Turnstile callback, runs obfuscator.io-style JavaScript that constructs a URL and calls window.location.assign to redirect the browser. Node cannot load an HTML file as a module, so nothing executes on npm install or on require of this package. The abuse surface is browsers that load this HTML via an npm-backed CDN (e.g., unpkg), not developers installing the package.
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
Malicious packageFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for clxofwfjskaz7 (version 1.0.0).
If you installed it — respond
Remove clxofwfjskaz7 from your project and lockfile, then assume any secrets accessible to the build or runtime were exposed: rotate API keys, tokens, and credentials, and audit for unexpected outbound activity or persistence.
Did it already run?
If clxofwfjskaz7 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.

Detect & block this
O3 blocks clxofwfjskaz7-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the malicious outbound activity and severs the channel.
