font-huge advertises itself as a font/icon collection, but its exported getPlugin function fetches https://svganchordev.net/icons/107 and passes the response's data.credits field to new Function with require, module, process, Buffer, and other Node primitives injected, then invokes it — executing attacker-controlled JavaScript with full Node privileges whenever a consumer imports and calls the default export. The destination host is unrelated to the package's declared purpose and is constructed by concatenating split literals (domain "svganchordev.net", path "/icons/", token "107") to obscure the URL in source. Retry logic and empty catch blocks suppress errors from the fetch. The package's declared dependencies (@primno/dpapi for Windows DPAPI decryption, better-sqlite3/sqlite3 for browser profile databases, node-machine-id, socket.io-client) are not referenced anywhere in the shipped code and match the runtime primitives a browser-credential stealer payload would need after being loaded via the remote eval.

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.
