Description

The npm package 'hanafi-tiwul62-sukiwir' is part of a token reward campaign that floods the npm registry with malicious packages. These packages contain autopublish scripts that automatically generate and publish derivative packages with randomized Indonesian-themed names. The malicious payload modifies package.json files to remove private flags and changes version numbers, enabling continuous republishing of variants. This activity inflates developer reputation scores for the tea protocol token rewards and pollutes the npm ecosystem.

Impact

The malicious payload enables continuous automated publishing of derivative npm packages, which pollutes the npm registry and undermines the integrity of developer reputation systems tied to token rewards. While there is no direct evidence of exploitation in the wild or CVSS scoring, this activity can degrade trust in the npm ecosystem and may lead to indirect risks such as supply chain confusion or abuse of reputation-based systems.

Defensive guidance

Users should avoid installing packages associated with this campaign and monitor for suspicious autopublish behavior in npm packages. Registry maintainers should consider removing or blocking these packages to prevent ecosystem pollution.

Summary

The 'hanafi-tiwul62-sukiwir' npm package is associated with the tea.xyz token reward campaign, which uses autopublish scripts (such as auto.js and autopublish.js variants) to automatically create and publish numerous derivative packages with randomized names. The malicious code alters package.json by removing private flags and incrementing version numbers to enable repeated publication. This behavior aims to artificially inflate developer reputation scores tied to the tea protocol token rewards, resulting in widespread pollution of the npm registry with malicious and spam packages.
