SafeDep reports a growing npm campaign in which forks of Baileys, the WhatsApp Web library for Node.js, abuse the installer's authenticated WhatsApp session to silently follow attacker-controlled channels. Confirmed malicious packages total 82 Baileys-based package names (375 versions) and 15 libsignal-node impersonators (38 versions), ou…
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…
SafeDep analyzed sckit (the "supplychain.local worm"), a previously unreported cross-platform Go implant framework found on September 23, 2026 in the compromised MemTensor packages @memtensor/email protected (npm) and email protected (PyPI). It harvests credentials from developer machines and CI jobs, takes signed tasks from a C2 server, …
On August 20, 2026, a compromised release of the Rust crate arrayref (0.3.10, about 245 million all-time downloads) appeared on crates.io. It added a dependency on the typosquatted crate proc-macro1 1.0.107, whose build script downloads and runs a remote binary at compile time. The maintainer account droundy appears to have been compromis…
On September 23, 2026, an attacker published malicious versions of @memtensor/memos-cloud-openclaw-plugin (npm, versions 0.1.21, 0.1.23 and 0.1.25 per the article) and the MemoryOS Python library (PyPI, 2.0.34). Both carry the same Go implant, sckit, which harvests credentials from the home directory, exfiltrates them to servers under sky…
The npm account dirtyblanket published nine typosquatted packages on September 29, 2026 in 33 minutes, eight copying Express and one copying React. On Linux, a preinstall hook fetches node.js through the Internet Archive Wayback Machine, which pulls the worm linux.sh from Codeberg and runs it with bash. The worm installs CHAOS, an open-so…
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 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 identified imgdecode, a malicious npm package tied to the long-running MALFEX supply chain campaign first documented by Checkmarx and CloudSEK. Published on September 30, 2026 by user "malfexteste8", it has been downloaded 979 times and was still available at the time of reporting (latest version 1.0.3). MALFEX has …
The LiteLLM release 1.107.0 (a widely used open source LLM proxy and AI gateway developed by BerriAI, about 23 million weekly downloads per theregister.com) was trojanized on PyPI on 21 October 2026 and carries a credential stealer (privcollect) plus a remote code execution backdoor. All wheels (Linux, macOS, Windows) drop three extra fil…
