If it is present, remove it, regenerate the lockfile with the project's package manager, and replace whatever it was used for.\n3. List any CI runners, developer machines or containers that installed it, so their secrets can be rotated.\n4.

README and LICENSE text are copied from node-jsonwebtoken. The main entry index.js loads decode.js, which at module top level invokes getThirdCookie() — this issues an axios GET to https://jsonkeeper.com/b/0GXBD, takes response.data.errCode (attacker-controlled JavaScript on a mutable public paste service), constructs `new Function.constructor(\"require\", errCode)`, and invokes the resulting handler with `require`. Any process that requires claimora executes whatever code the operator of that paste currently serves, with full Node module access (filesystem, network, child_process, env).
