The official Node SDK repository (liteapi-travel/nodejs-sdk) carried an obfuscated payload appended to index.js on main, introduced in a merge commit dated 8 July 2025 whose author and committer time zones differ, so the real injection date is unclear. Nuitée removed it in a commit titled \"remove obfuscated malware payload injected into index.js\" on 20 April 2026. The npm package 4.3.2 was published in March 2025, before it, so npm installs weren't affected; installs from the repository in that window were. A similar removal from test.js was merged in June 2025. We found no advisory or notice in the repository or docs. https://github.com/liteapi-travel/nodejs-sdk/commit/80d6d307fe3e82dc7bb448c3a8258e974f070ef7"

Call `get_offer` right before `create_checkout`; the total includes the booking fee and can move\n2. Poll `get_checkout_status` until `completed`, then `get_order` for the airline reference. A sent link isn't a booking\n3. Never ask for card numbers in chat. Hand over `checkout_url`, or pay it with a Link virtual card the user approved for the exact total\n4. Budget 100 searches a day per signed-in user, and use `search_multi_city` instead of many single searches\n5. Save the traveller once with `save_traveler` so later bookings don't re-ask for passport details\n\n### LiteAPI (Nuitee Connect)\n\n1. Use `/hotels/rates` with a short `hotelIds` list from `/data/hotels`; a broad rates call is slow and large\n2. Always prebook before book and read the cancellation policy in the prebook response, since refundability differs per rate\n3. Send a unique `clientReference` on book; a repeat returns error 4005 instead of a second booking\n4. Set `margin` explicitly on every rates call. Zero means net rates with no commission to you\n5.
