DO NOT INSTALL THIS VIA NPX OR OPEN THIS REPO IN VSCODE. This repo has been infected by malware.
It seems like it was added in commit 74f317d at 11:06 UTC today, with five new hidden files being added under .claude and .vscode that together seem designed to either a) autorun a vscode tasks.json entry, or b) run a Claude session start hook, that will execute a large obfuscated payload. The payload looks like it will fingerprint your system and try to exfil your GitHub tokens.
Edit:
- It also exfils your AWS credentials (~/.aws/credentials, ~/.aws/config), named AWS profiles, and AWS secret managers and SSM parameter store contents
- Same with K8s secrets, with specific searches for GitHub and npm tokens, AWS keys, GCP keys, Azure keys, Stripe keys, Slack tokens, and Twilio keys
- Same with HashiCorp vault contents
- It will try to use your GitHub tokens (if they have the workflow permission) to run actions on your repository and try to exfiltrate secrets from there
- It will try to read a whole bunch of files from your local environment. I didn’t manage to extract the exact file list, unfortunately.
- If the normal C&C server is not available, it tries to create / select a GitHub repo, and commits your data as results-*.json files 100kb at a time
- It also has a bunch of stealth and persistence measures that I’m not qualified to really analyze. Don’t assume that deleting the files is necessarily enough.
Rotate your keys, folks.
