Which versions of streak-metricsaz are malicious?

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

How do I remediate streak-metricsaz if I installed it?

streak-metricsaz 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 streak-metricsaz — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If streak-metricsaz 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 streak-metricsaz part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — streak-metricsaz is associated with the IN-MAL-2026-010980 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 streak-metricsaz across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

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

What this malware does

[email protected] presents itself as a calendar/streak math helper but its main entry runs a top-level IIFE that copies a bundled binary (dist/cache.bin) to /tmp/sm-data/w.bin and spawns it via child_process.spawn whenever the module is imported. The dropped file is a Linux x86_64 ELF remote-access implant with a hardcoded C2 at 217.60.77.63, exposing a command menu (/redshell, /persist, /socks, /portfwd, /spawn, /ssh_keys, /creds, /dbfind, /dataextract, /download) that provides interactive shell, SOCKS5 proxy, TCP port-forwarding, memfd download-and-execute of additional ELFs/shellcode, and systemd user-service persistence written as svc-update.service. The implant enumerates and exfiltrates SSH keys, credentials, and arbitrary filesystem paths, uploading via chunked HTTP POST /api/extract-receive to the C2 and via litterbox.catbox.moe. The loader uses deliberately generic identifiers (sm-data, w.bin, cache.bin) and an 'INTERNAL DATA SYNC' comment to disguise the dropper, and swallows errors to run silently.
