ME News, May 20 (UTC+8), according to threat intelligence released by SlowMist, multiple high-frequency npm packages including AntV and Echarts-for-react, as well as the Python SDK durabletask, have recently been subjected to a Mini Shai-Hulud "Mini Sandworm" supply chain attack. The npm account atool was compromised, and the attacker automatically published 637 malicious versions within 22 minutes, covering 317 packages. The attacker continuously uploaded versions 1.4.1, 1.4.2, and 1.4.3 of durabletask within 35 minutes, bypassing normal release controls and impersonating an official Microsoft release. The massive GitHub token leak incident and the ransomware attack on Grafana Labs are likely related to this supply chain attack. Affected components include high-frequency components in the npm ecosystem such as AntV and Echarts-for-react, as well as Python package durabletask versions 1.4.1, 1.4.2, and 1.4.3. Attackers can steal cloud and local credentials, gain unauthorized access to internal repositories and sensitive cloud infrastructure, conduct lateral movement to developer machines and CI/CD pipelines, sell and exploit leaked GitHub tokens, and carry out ransomware and data extortion threats. SlowMist recommends immediately rotating all exposed credentials, replacing affected packages, isolating potentially compromised systems, and implementing strict dependency review policies. Previously reported, the "Mini Sandworm" worm has recently achieved widespread infection in open-source code repositories, and developers need to be vigilant during inspections.
