LofyLife: malicious npm packages steal Discord tokens and bank card data

It is intended to steal Discord tokens from infected machines, along with the victim’s IP address, and upload them via HTTP. The JavaScript malware we dubbed “Lofy Stealer” was created to infect Discord client files in order to monitor the victim’s actions.
