streak-map-cachenpm
streak-map-cache is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-13459) 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-map-cache (npm)
What this malware does
The package advertises itself as a dependency-free day/streak math library, but its main entrypoint (dist/index.mjs) contains a top-level async IIFE that unconditionally chmods 0755 and spawns a bundled Linux ELF at dist/internal/calc-map.bin as a detached child process on every import/require. The JavaScript day-math logic in dist/internal/daymath.mjs is pure JS and never invokes the binary; a placeholder _ensureEngine() simply returns true, and code comments acknowledge the binary is cosmetic. The ELF is a RedShell C2 implant: it beacons to hardcoded C2 217.60.77.63 over plain HTTP, treats received input as shell commands, and implements reverse-shell, SOCKS5 proxy, TCP port-forwarding, memfd_create-based ELF/shellcode download-and-exec from http://217.60.77.63/Others/* and /SC/*, chunked file exfiltration to http://217.60.77.63/api/extract-receive, operator commands for SSH-key/credential/database harvesting (/ssh_keys, /creds, /dbfind, /env, /clipboard, /download, /dataextract), and systemd --user persistence. Cover-story framing (README, log strings, sha256 'integrity gate') labels the binary a 'native math accelerator' to defeat cursory review.
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
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for streak-map-cache (version 1.0.0). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging streak-map-cache across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
streak-map-cache 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-map-cache was ever installed, its post-install/runtime payload may have already executed. O3's L7 egress monitoring and runtime eBPF sensors detect the credential exfiltration or command-and-control callback after install and block the malicious outbound channel, so you catch and contain the actual compromise — not just the presence of the package.
How O3 protects you
O3 blocks streak-map-cache before install through its supply-chain scanner, and if it has already run, detects and severs the exfiltration or C2 callback at runtime through L7 egress monitoring and eBPF.
