Which versions of mobicwkgjmx are malicious?

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

How do I remediate mobicwkgjmx if I installed it?

mobicwkgjmx 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.

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

If mobicwkgjmx 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 mobicwkgjmx part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — mobicwkgjmx is associated with the GHSA-5qfm-5r6q-m38q, IN-MAL-2026-017516 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 mobicwkgjmx across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

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

Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.

npm uninstall mobicwkgjmx

What this malware does

Package [email protected] contains only two scanned files and no static or traced findings indicating credential access, install-time execution of external code, silent-relay, dropper, backdoor, or self-propagation. The random-looking package name is unusual but is not by itself a supply-chain threat, and no code behavior in this version demonstrates harm to an installer.

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.
