  1. The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers.

skills-analyzer

Affected versions: (1) 0.1.0, 0.1.1, 0.1.2

  1. Version numbers are usually added automatically. In most cases, the packages listed here were created only to distribute malicious code.

In this campaign, specific versions of involved affected packages hide malicious actions. The malicious code is hidden in specific versions of a dependency (is-it-ai), intentionally pinned by specific versions of dependent packages. All package versions were uploaded with malicious intention; the ones without malicious references are clearly intendent only to hide a cover for the rest. When triggered, the malicious action fingerprints the environment and contacts the remote server. If it responds with an URL, it will be downloaded and executed.

The malicious code is in 0.1.1, other releases are just to cover it.
