Which versions of mnhdjoweuq are malicious?

The following npm versions of mnhdjoweuq are flagged malicious: 1.0.0. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate mnhdjoweuq if I installed it?

mnhdjoweuq is a typosquat — you almost certainly intended a legitimately-named package. Remove mnhdjoweuq, install the correct package, and rotate any secrets exposed during the install since post-install scripts may have already run.

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

If mnhdjoweuq 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.

Is mnhdjoweuq part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — mnhdjoweuq is associated with the GHSA-ph9q-v37r-28hp, IN-MAL-2026-017491 campaign. Packages in the same campaign often share infrastructure and payloads, so check whether any related packages are also in your dependency tree.

How do I find mnhdjoweuq across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for mnhdjoweuq (version 1.0.0).

What this malware does

Package contains only package.json and index.html, with main pointing at the HTML file. index.html mimics a Cloudflare Turnstile 'Just a moment' challenge and contains an obfuscator.io-obfuscated Turnstile callback that reconstructs a URL starting with 'https://lo' from a string-array and navigates the browser to it via window.location. There are no install lifecycle scripts (preinstall/install/postinstall/prepare) and main is HTML rather than JavaScript, so nothing executes on npm install or require of the package. The obfuscated redirect only fires when a browser loads the HTML (for example if served via a CDN like unpkg/jsdelivr), affecting a browser visitor rather than the developer who installs 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.
