Threat Intelligence Database

Microsoft Threat Intelligence discovered a large-scale npm supply chain attack compromising over 140 packages in the mastra and @mastra scopes. The attack originated from takeover of the ehindero npm maintainer account, which published poisoned package versions introducing easy-day-js, a malicious typosquat of the popular dayjs library. The malicious package executed a postinstall hook that deployed an obfuscated dropper script, disabled TLS certificate verification, contacted command-and-control infrastructure at 23.254.164.92 and 23.254.164.123, and downloaded a second-stage payload. This 41KB cross-platform Node.js implant installed persistence mechanisms, performed cryptocurrency wallet inventory, exfiltrated browser history and host reconnaissance data, and on Windows performed reflective .NET assembly injection for fileless in-memory code execution. Any developer workstation or CI/CD pipeline executing npm install after compromise was potentially exposed regardless of code usage.
