Description

The npm package 'mulyono-kue86-riris' 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 package can degrade the integrity of the npm registry by flooding it with numerous derivative packages, potentially misleading developers and automated systems relying on package metadata. It may also distort developer reputation metrics within the tea protocol token reward campaign. There is no indication of direct exploitation or compromise of user systems beyond registry pollution.

Defensive guidance

Users and maintainers should avoid installing or depending on packages associated with this campaign. Registry maintainers should consider removing or blocking these autopublished derivative packages to maintain ecosystem integrity.

Summary

This threat involves a malicious npm package that is used in a token reward campaign flooding the npm ecosystem. The package includes autopublish scripts (e.g., auto.js, autopublish.js) that automate the creation and publication of derivative packages with randomized names. These scripts alter package.json by removing private flags and incrementing version numbers, facilitating repeated republishing. The goal is to inflate developer reputation scores within the tea protocol token reward system and to pollute the npm registry with numerous variants.
