Description

The npm package 'nadia-tiwul86-sukiwir' 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 change version numbers, enabling continuous republishing to inflate developer reputation scores and pollute the npm registry.

Impact

The malicious package inflates developer reputation scores fraudulently by continuously publishing derivative packages with randomized names. This pollutes the npm registry with numerous low-quality or fake packages, potentially undermining trust in the ecosystem and complicating package management and security assessments.

Defensive guidance

No specific patch or remediation is indicated. Users and maintainers should avoid using packages linked to this campaign and monitor for suspicious autopublish behavior. Registry maintainers may consider removing or blocking such packages to prevent further pollution.

Summary

This threat involves the npm package 'nadia-tiwul86-sukiwir', which is associated with the tea.xyz token reward campaign that flooded the npm ecosystem. The package includes autopublish scripts (such as auto.js and autopublish.js variants) that automate the creation and publication of derivative packages with randomized names. The malicious code alters package.json by removing private flags and modifying version numbers, facilitating repeated republishing of variants. This behavior aims to manipulate developer reputation metrics for token rewards and results in registry pollution.
