Description
The npm package erwin-ongol-ongol85-sluey is part of a malicious campaign linked to tea.xyz token rewards. It contains autopublish scripts that automatically generate and publish derivative packages with randomized names. These scripts modify package.json files to remove private flags, change version numbers, and create Indonesian-themed or English package names. The continuous republishing pollutes the npm registry and inflates developer reputation scores fraudulently.
