Description

The npm package putri-nasiuduk49-ruro 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 to continuously republish variants, polluting the npm registry.

Impact

The malicious package pollutes the npm registry with numerous derivative packages, potentially misleading developers and automated systems relying on package metadata. It manipulates package.json files to bypass privacy settings and continuously republishes variants, which can degrade the integrity of the npm ecosystem and may lead to trust issues or inadvertent inclusion of malicious code in projects.

Defensive guidance

Users and maintainers should avoid installing or depending on packages related to this campaign. Registry maintainers should consider removing these packages and monitoring for similar autopublish scripts. Since this is a malware campaign rather than a software vulnerability, remediation involves detection and removal rather than patching.

Summary

This threat involves a malicious npm package, putri-nasiuduk49-ruro, associated with the tea.xyz token reward campaign. 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 modify package.json by removing private flags and altering version numbers, enabling continuous republishing of variants. The objective is to inflate developer reputation scores for tea protocol token rewards and flood the npm registry with these packages.
