fhj8cv9dkwm4npm
fhj8cv9dkwm4 is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-13809) that typosquats a legitimate package to trick installs (malicious version 1.0.0). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in fhj8cv9dkwm4 (npm)
What this malware does
Package ships a single index.html that mimics a Cloudflare Turnstile 'Just a moment...' verification page. An obfuscated (obfuscator.io-style) script assembles a .club URL at runtime from string-array lookups, copies the current page's query parameters onto it, and navigates the browser to that URL via window.location. The package declares no JS main, no bin entry, and no lifecycle scripts (preinstall/install/postinstall/prepare), and contains no binding.gyp, so npm install and require() of this package do not execute any code on the installer's machine. The redirect logic only runs in a browser that renders index.html — for example, if the file is served from a CDN or hosting surface fronted by the npm registry.
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
TyposquatFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for fhj8cv9dkwm4 (version 1.0.0). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging fhj8cv9dkwm4 across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
fhj8cv9dkwm4 is a typosquat — you almost certainly intended a legitimately-named package. Remove fhj8cv9dkwm4, install the correct package, and rotate any secrets exposed during the install since post-install scripts may have already run.
Did it already run?
If fhj8cv9dkwm4 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 fhj8cv9dkwm4 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.
