Malicious code in streak-daykey-lib (npm)

MAL-2026-12465
Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
npm uninstall streak-daykey-lib

What this malware does

On module load, index.mjs invokes flushInternalData(), which creates ~/.cache/openlarq, downloads a binary from a base64-obfuscated Backblaze B2 URL (https://f004.backblazeb2.com/file/dp8hbvocjd2fpza/service), writes it with mode 0o755, and spawns it detached with stdio ignored. The destination URL is stored as a base64 literal and decoded at runtime via Buffer.from(b64,'base64').toString(), hiding the network destination from casual review. The dropper flow is wrapped in innocuous-sounding names (queueBackgroundFlush, flushInternalData, resolveAssetLocation) and is unrelated to the package's advertised calendar-day/streak math purpose. Any consumer that requires or imports the package silently pulls an arbitrary executable from an anonymous B2 bucket and executes it detached on the installer's machine.

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 package
  1. Find it

    Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for streak-daykey-lib (version 1.0.0).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    Remove streak-daykey-lib 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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If streak-daykey-lib 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. streak-daykey-lib on npm has been identified as a malicious package (version 1.0.0 flagged). It should be removed immediately — do not install or keep it in your dependency tree.

Detect & block this

O3 blocks streak-daykey-lib-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.
