Description

The npm package qori-miebogor10-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 change version numbers, enabling continuous republishing to pollute the npm registry and artificially inflate developer reputation scores.

Impact

The malicious package pollutes the npm registry by continuously publishing derivative packages with randomized names, which can degrade the quality and trustworthiness of the npm ecosystem. It artificially inflates developer reputation scores related to the tea protocol token rewards, potentially misleading users and developers relying on reputation metrics. 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 the qori-miebogor10-ruro package and related variants. Registry maintainers should consider removing these malicious packages and monitoring for similar autopublish scripts to prevent further pollution. Since this is a registry pollution campaign, standard package vetting and reputation monitoring are recommended.

Summary

This threat involves the npm package qori-miebogor10-ruro, which is 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, facilitating repeated publication of variants. The objective is to flood the npm registry with these packages to manipulate developer reputation scores for tea protocol token rewards.
