Description

The kurnia-kue96-sukiwir npm package 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 Indonesian-themed names. The payload modifies package.json files to remove private flags and changes version numbers, enabling continuous republishing of variants to pollute the npm registry.

Impact

The malicious payload enables continuous automated publication of numerous npm packages with randomized names, which pollutes the npm registry. This can degrade the quality and trustworthiness of the npm ecosystem and may mislead developers relying on reputation scores. There is no direct evidence of exploitation in the wild or of further malicious code beyond the autopublishing behavior.

Defensive guidance

Users and maintainers should avoid using the kurnia-kue96-sukiwir package and related variants. Registry maintainers should consider removing these packages and monitoring for similar autopublish scripts to prevent ecosystem pollution.

Summary

This threat involves the kurnia-kue96-sukiwir npm package, which is associated with the tea.xyz token reward campaign. The package includes autopublish scripts (such as auto.js and autopublish.js variants) that automate the creation and publication of derivative npm packages with randomized names. These scripts alter package.json by removing private flags and modifying version numbers, facilitating repeated republishing of variants. The purpose is to inflate developer reputation scores within the tea protocol token reward system and to flood the npm registry with numerous malicious or spam packages.
