What to do now

  1. Remove the package if it is installed: run npm uninstall @vite-mcp/vite-type. [1]
  2. Remove the package from the computer. [1]
  3. Rotate all secrets and keys stored on that computer right away, from a different computer. [1]
  4. Do not assume the computer is clean after removing the package, because removing it may not remove all the malicious software. [1]

General practice, not from the source: if the affected software could read tokens or credentials, rotate them after upgrading; pin versions and review changes before updating tools your agents run.
