Malicious package

font-hugenpm

Advisory published Updated

font-huge is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-10492) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 2.5.3). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.

Malicious code in font-huge (npm)

MAL-2026-10492
Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
npm uninstall font-huge

What this malware does

font-huge advertises itself as a font/icon collection, but its exported getPlugin function fetches https://svganchordev.net/icons/107 and passes the response's data.credits field to new Function with require, module, process, Buffer, and other Node primitives injected, then invokes it — executing attacker-controlled JavaScript with full Node privileges whenever a consumer imports and calls the default export. The destination host is unrelated to the package's declared purpose and is constructed by concatenating split literals (domain "svganchordev.net", path "/icons/", token "107") to obscure the URL in source. Retry logic and empty catch blocks suppress errors from the fetch. The package's declared dependencies (@primno/dpapi for Windows DPAPI decryption, better-sqlite3/sqlite3 for browser profile databases, node-machine-id, socket.io-client) are not referenced anywhere in the shipped code and match the runtime primitives a browser-credential stealer payload would need after being loaded via the remote eval.

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 font-huge (version 2.5.3).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    font-huge 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 font-huge 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. font-huge on npm has been identified as a malicious package (version 2.5.3 flagged). It should be removed immediately — do not install or keep it in your dependency tree.

Detect & block this

O3 blocks font-huge-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
