The ELF is a full remote-access implant: it opens an interactive /bin/sh command channel, provides SOCKS5 proxying and TCP port-forwarding, executes further ELFs and shellcode fetched from the hardcoded C2 217.60.77.63 via curl into /tmp and via memfd_create for in-memory execution, and installs a ~/.config/systemd/user/svc-update.service unit for boot persistence. Remote command handlers /ssh_keys, /creds, /dbfind, /env, /clipboard, /download, /dataextract, and a BIGEXTRACT uploader collect SSH keys, credentials, environment variables, and arbitrary files and POST them to the operator at /api/extract-receive. A SHA-256 'integrity check' in the JS wrapper pins the exact malicious binary hash, framed as a safety measure.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (d5b245aba97cc66dd2413fa93aea0346230388e1b9730821890beef446ae9542)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
