On 2026-06-17, public reporting described an @mastra package-scope compromise that pushed easy-day-js as a malicious dependency across 140+ packages, executed a setup.cjs postinstall dropper, and exposed more than 1.1 million weekly downloads to second-stage credential theft and remote code execution behavior.
An attacker hijacked a Pythagora co-founder's GitHub account, force-pushed a Shai-Hulud credential-stealer to gpt-pilot's main branch, and lost the payload twice to ruff lint failures before any public downstream execution was shown.
Attackers adopted orphaned Arch User Repository (AUR) packages using forged commit signatures to inject npm and bun dependency executions. The rogue packages 'atomic-lockfile' and 'js-digest' delivered a Rust credential stealer, systemd persistence, and an eBPF rootkit.
Attackers are actively exploiting CVE-2026-26980, a critical SQL injection in the Ghost CMS Content API, to extract Admin API Keys. Stolen keys are used to inject malicious JavaScript into published articles, serving ClickFix social engineering payloads to website visitors.
Socket disclosed 37 malicious PyPI wheels on June 7, 2026 and 23 additional malicious release artifacts on June 8, while StepSecurity's June 16 report independently re-corroborated the Hades cluster through mflux-streamlit and mrbios coverage. Hades-linked loaders abuse Python startup hooks or native extensions to execute Bun-launched credential stealers.
Microsoft reported that the Claude Code GitHub Action could expose workflow secrets through a Read-tool path that reached /proc/self/environ; Anthropic shipped v2.1.128 as the fixed release.
On June 5, 2026, the official Azure/durabletask GitHub repository was compromised. Threat actors pushed a backdated commit ('Switched DataConverter to OrchestrationContext [skip ci]') that added a malicious tasks.json and configuration files targeting AI coding tools to execute credential-stealing payloads.
Snyk disclosed a June 2026 npm supply-chain wave that abuses native-addon build behavior through binding.gyp and node-gyp. The Phantom Gyp/Miasma activity affects packages including @vapi-ai, abandoned-package, and autotel packages and should be handled as install-time credential exposure.
JFrog Security disclosed IronWorm, a Rust-based npm information-stealing worm found in 36 package versions. It uses an eBPF rootkit and Tor for stealth and propagates through stolen credentials and trusted publishing workflows.
Multiple @redhat-cloud-services npm packages were compromised on 2026-06-01 through trusted-publishing abuse tied to the Mini Shai-Hulud Miasma wave. The malicious releases added install-time payload execution, credential collection, destructive fallback behavior, and GitHub workflow tampering risk.
Snyk and OX tracked mouse5212-super-formatter as a malicious npm package published on 2026-05-26 and removed on 2026-05-27. The package should be treated as credential theft risk for AI-assisted workspaces, Claude/Cursor context files, GitHub tokens, npm tokens, and build logs.
Microsoft attributed a 33-package npm dependency-confusion campaign to shared postinstall tradecraft that profiled developer environments, ran in reconnaissance-only mode, and beaconed to a shared command-and-control endpoint.
Malicious Sicoob.Sdk NuGet releases impersonated a banking SDK and exfiltrated Sicoob client IDs, PFX passwords, and base64-encoded PFX certificate archives through a hardcoded Sentry endpoint.
Microsoft reported 14 typosquatted npm packages under the vpmdhaj scope that impersonated OpenSearch, AWS SDK, STS, and Bun packages while collecting AWS, GitHub Actions, npm, Vault, Kubernetes, SSH, and local cloud configuration secrets.
CVE-2026-32202 is an actively exploited Windows Shell protection-mechanism failure that Akamai traced to an incomplete patch for an APT28 LNK exploit chain, allowing zero-click NTLM authentication coercion when Explorer renders a malicious shortcut.
All 53 reviewed tags for actions-cool/issues-helper and all 15 tags for actions-cool/maintain-one-comment were moved to dangling imposter commits that scraped GitHub Actions runner memory and exfiltrated credentials. GitHub now blocks access to both repositories.
Four Laravel-Lang repositories were compromised through rewritten Composer tags that loaded a PHP backdoor through Composer autoload. Maintainers restored the tags on May 23, but installs from the exposure window require credential rotation and commit-level verification.
Megalodon added malicious GitHub Actions workflows to thousands of public repositories to collect environment variables, cloud credentials, source-control secrets, and runner tokens.
TrapDoor is an active cross-registry supply-chain campaign using npm postinstall hooks, PyPI import-time execution, and Rust build scripts to steal developer, cloud, SSH, and crypto wallet secrets.
On May 19, 2026, the official Microsoft durabletask Python SDK was compromised on PyPI. Threat actors used hijacked publishing credentials to directly upload malicious versions containing a cloud credential-harvesting payload.
On May 14, 2026, the highly popular Node.js library node-ipc was compromised in a major supply chain attack. Attackers re-registered the expired email domain of a dormant lead maintainer to reset their npm account password and publish credential-stealing updates.
Intercom says an attacker published `[email protected]` on April 30, 2026 using credentials from a compromised developer account. The package executed a Bun-launched credential stealer during installation and was removed within hours.
On April 30, 2026, malicious `lightning` PyPI releases 2.6.2 and 2.6.3 shipped an import-time loader that bootstrapped Bun and executed a large obfuscated JavaScript credential stealer.
A malicious `elementary-data==0.23.3` release was pushed to PyPI and GHCR after attackers exploited a GitHub Actions script-injection path, adding an interpreter-startup `.pth` infostealer.
Bitwarden confirmed that @bitwarden/[email protected] was maliciously distributed through the npm CLI delivery path for a short April 22, 2026 window. CVE-2026-42994 tracks the incident; artifact analysis tied the package to bw_setup.js, bw1.js, Bun bootstrap, credential theft, and GitHub fallback channels.
JFrog reported that the legitimate PyPI package xinference shipped malicious versions 2.6.0, 2.6.1, and 2.6.2 with import-time code in xinference/__init__.py. The payload collected host and secret material into love[.]tar[.]gz and posted it to whereisitat[.]lucyatemysuperbox[.]space with header X-QT-SR: 14.
Socket disclosed five npm typosquats targeting Solana and Ethereum developers on 2026-03-24. Registry metadata shows malicious releases dating from 2025-11-18 through 2026-02-16; npm replaced four package records with security placeholders on 2026-04-01.
On March 24, 2026, the popular LiteLLM Python package was compromised on PyPI. Attackers harvested PyPI publishing secrets from LiteLLM's CI/CD runner via a previously backdoored dependency, uploading malicious versions containing a python startup hook payload.
On March 19, 2026, the widely adopted container vulnerability scanner Trivy was compromised in a major supply chain attack. Cybercrime group TeamPCP poisoned version tags to harvest and exfiltrate runner credentials.
