Beware the Backdoor Bandits: Nasty npm Packages Pulled for Sneaky Shenanigans
Beware, devs! Two sneaky npm packages turned backdoor bandits, playing hide-and-seek with malicious code. Gone in a download, these digital wolves in sheep’s coding could execute remote commands faster than you can say “patch”!
Hot Take:
Who needs a Trojan Horse when you've got npm packages? Another day, another sneaky bit of code trying to play hide and seek in our software supply chain. These packages aren't delivering the kind of "special features" we'd like. Remember, folks, always check your packages or you might end up with more 'functionality' than you bargained for!
