Microsoft has identified a npm supply chain compromise impacting 90+ redhat-cloud-services/* packages, including patch-client 4.0.4, insights-client 4.0.4, rbac-client 9.0.3, host-inventory-client 5.0.3, frontend-components 7.7.2, and others. The payload is a self-propagating worm that infects other npm packages and self-publishes.
Each compromised package adds a malicious preinstall hook, embedding an index.js script in the package.json that silently executes “node index.js” during installation, downloads Bun, and runs a payload that steals secrets from npm, GitHub, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Secure Shell (SSH). The added code bloats index.js from ~8KB to ~4.3MB, acting as a heavily obfuscated ROT-9 eval loader.
If any of the compromised packages are installed, users and organizations should assume compromise, rotate credentials, revert to a previously trusted version, and block compromised packages. Identified compromised npm packages have been taken down, and we continue to work with the npm team. Microsoft continues to investigate this attack and will publish updates as more information is available.

Our codex offsite left a deep impression on me.
I am beyond excited for what the next 10 or so weeks will bring and I think the current state of coding agents will be remembered as being so primitive that it will be funny in comparison.
