Malware in cdeops
What's happening and what to do
Attackers planted malware in this package that gives them full control of any computer that installed it, so removing it may not undo the damage. npm package cdeops, version 13.5.31. Treat any machine that installed it as fully compromised: rotate all secrets and keys from a different computer, remove the package, and check for signs of compromise, since removal alone may not clean the malware.

Source text
Any 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. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.
