Description

The siska-rojak16-riris npm package is part of a malicious campaign linked to the tea.xyz token reward scheme. It contains autopublish scripts that automatically generate and publish derivative packages with randomized Indonesian-themed names. These scripts modify package.json files to remove private flags and alter version numbers, enabling continuous republishing of variants. This activity pollutes the npm registry and inflates developer reputation scores fraudulently.

Impact

The malicious package pollutes the npm registry with numerous derivative packages, potentially misleading users and automated systems relying on package metadata. It artificially inflates developer reputation scores within the tea protocol token reward system, undermining trust and integrity. There is no indication of direct exploitation or compromise of end-user systems beyond registry pollution and reputation manipulation.

Defensive guidance

Users and maintainers should avoid using or depending on the siska-rojak16-riris package and related variants. Registry maintainers and security teams should monitor for and remove such autopublished malicious packages to prevent ecosystem pollution. Since this is a registry pollution and reputation inflation issue, standard package vetting and reputation validation processes should be enforced.

Summary

This threat involves the siska-rojak16-riris npm package, which is associated with the tea.xyz token reward campaign flooding npm with malicious packages. The package includes autopublish scripts (e.g., auto.js, autopublish.js) that automatically create and publish numerous derivative packages with randomized names. The malicious payload modifies package.json files by removing private flags and changing version numbers to facilitate repeated publication. This behavior results in registry pollution and artificial inflation of developer reputation scores within the tea protocol token ecosystem.
