Microsoft Threat Intelligence is tracking active Mini Shai-Hulud npm supply chain attacks in which a threat actor compromised trusted maintainer accounts to distribute credential-stealing malware. Compromised packages (confirmed malicious) include: - [email protected] - [email protected] - [email protected] - [email protected] - qlik/[email protected] - cacheable/memory, /utils, /net - 17+ servicetitan/* packages (eslint-config, anvil-themes, table, form, log-service, etc.) In this attack, a malicious preinstall hook launches an obfuscated dropper (setup.mjs) that downloads a Bun binary from GitHub and executes a credential-stealing payload, either Math_Symbol.js or Math_Init.js. The payload is a Mini Shai-Hulud variant, a self-propagating npm supply-chain malware family. It harvests npm, GitHub, cloud and continuous integration (CI) credentials, exfiltrates collected secrets, and uses stolen publishing access to inject itself into package tarballs, increment their versions and republish the compromised releases. Microsoft observed the same pattern across all affected packages, suggesting a single actor using multiple stolen tokens. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint customers should act on these alerts: “Trojan:npm/MalBun.A”
