Description

The npm package 'ocha-saguer91-riris' is part of a malicious campaign linked to the tea.xyz token reward system. It contains autopublish scripts that automatically generate and publish derivative packages with randomized Indonesian-themed names. These actions aim to inflate developer reputation scores by continuously republishing variants, thereby polluting the npm registry.

Impact

The malicious payload manipulates npm package metadata and floods the npm registry with numerous derivative packages, which can degrade the integrity and trustworthiness of the npm ecosystem. This activity can mislead users and automated systems relying on reputation scores and package authenticity. There is no indication of direct code execution or exploitation beyond registry pollution and reputation manipulation.

Defensive guidance

Users and maintainers should avoid using or depending on the 'ocha-saguer91-riris' package and related variants. Registry maintainers and security teams should monitor and remove such autopublished malicious packages to maintain ecosystem integrity.

Summary

This threat involves the 'ocha-saguer91-riris' npm package, which is associated with the tea.xyz token reward campaign. The package includes autopublish scripts (such as auto.js, autopublish.js, autopublish2.js, autopublish3.js) that modify package.json files by removing private flags and changing version numbers. It then generates random Indonesian-themed package names and repeatedly republishes these variants. The purpose is to artificially inflate developer reputation scores within the tea protocol token ecosystem and to flood the npm registry with numerous derivative packages.
