streak-kit-mapnpm
Advisory published Updated
streak-kit-map is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-13519) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 1.0.0). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in streak-kit-map (npm)
What this malware does
The package advertises itself as a streak/calendar math library, but its main entry dist/index.mjs contains a top-level IIFE that, on any import/require, chmods dist/internal/map-calc.bin to 0755 and detached-spawns it after a sha256 integrity gate. The bundled Linux x86_64 ELF is a full remote-control implant: strings show a RedShell / RC2TUN beacon to a hardcoded C2 at 217.60.77.63, command handlers for shell execution, ELF/shellcode download-and-run (including memfd_create fd exec) via HTTP paths /Others/<file> and /SC/<file>, SOCKS5 proxy and port forwarding, chunked file exfiltration via POST /api/extract-receive HTTP/1.1 packaging loot as Loot_<host>_<user>_<ts>, targeted collection of SSH keys and credentials (/ssh_keys, /creds, /dbfind, /download, /dataextract), and reboot persistence by writing ~/.config/systemd/user/svc-update.service (Description=System Update Service, Restart=always) and enabling it via systemctl --user. The JS wrapper's Loads the native math accelerator / integrity verification — critical security gate comments are cover-story framing; the hash pin exists to guarantee the exact malicious bytes execute.
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 stealerFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for streak-kit-map (version 1.0.0).
If you installed it — respond
streak-kit-map 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.
Did it already run?
If streak-kit-map 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.

Detect & block this
O3 blocks streak-kit-map-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
