On August 12, 2026, an npm user (rootdaddy-msrc, author field r00tdaddy) published 21 packages that squatted the unscoped CLI binary names declared in the bin field of Google-affiliated scoped packages, such as ngsw-config (from @angular/service-worker) and bazelisk (from @bazel/bazelisk). Scoped publishing, registry allowlists and lockfi…
Two beta versions in the @joyfill npm scope, published on July 28, 2026, carried the same blockchain C2 loader seen in the earlier astro.config.mjs attack, which the article ties to the PolinRider campaign. The attacker published through the legitimate scope (a form-builder SDK with three maintainers) under the beta dist-tag. The maliciou…
On August 28, 2026, an attacker published 10 malicious versions of the npm package @7nohe/openapi-react-query-codegen (about 671K downloads/month) without stealing any credentials. They abused the repository's GitHub Actions release.yml workflow, which had an issuecomment trigger with no author-association gate. Commenting npm publish on …
An attacker pushed forged commits to the default branches of two unrelated GitHub projects, hugo-paper and mevn-cli. The commits add a preinstall hook (scripts/preinstall.js) that downloads and silently runs a second-stage script from buildwithknexus.xyz during npm install or bun install. The commits copy the author, date and message of t…
SafeDep found a remote access implant in mathmain, an npm package that copies mathjs, and in two sibling packages, mathsbase and math-universe. The malicious code ships AES-256-GCM encrypted and activates only when lusolve() is called with matrix data whose LU lower factor serializes to a specific password. Once decrypted, the implant tak…
On 4 August 2026, an npm worm published 2,234 poisoned versions across 444 package names, using credentials from twelve organisations. Affected scopes include @ornikar, @deliveroo, @onereach, @or-sdk, @servicetitan, @qlik, @picsart, and the keyv and cacheable families. The keyv, flat-cache, file-entry-cache and cacheable-request packages …
SafeDep flagged the malicious npm package ulid-xyz in June 2026. It typosquats ulidx and is a cross-platform remote access trojan. It is delivered through a three-layer transitive dependency chain: ioredis-xyz (a clone of the legitimate ioredis client) depends on redis-type-xyz (an empty manifest posing as Redis OM), which in version 1.10…
SafeDep reports that the PolinRider loader family now resolves its C2 servers from Ethereum mainnet. The loader reads small transactions from operator wallets and decodes the recipient address as an IP:port. SafeDep confirmed 35 GitHub repositories carrying the loader at HEAD on 2026-09-30 (7,578 stars and 2,884 forks combined). The inves…
SafeDep identified a malicious tensorlake npm release, version 0.5.144 (about 106,000 monthly downloads), that ran a Mini Shai-Hulud worm on install. It was published at 01:12:07 UTC on 8 October and flagged by SafeDep eight minutes later. The attacker used a repository administrator account to commit the payload to main through the GitHu…
Researchers at SafeDep analyzed a macOS implant recovered from a compromised workstation. Infection began on 2026-07-26 with a paid YouTube video ad impersonating TradingView that led to a fake .pkg installer. The malware is a remote-controlled task runner, not a single-purpose stealer. It persists via a LaunchAgent that re-fetches a shel…
