Malicious code in node-ipc (npm)
Three versions of node-ipc (9.1.6, 9.2.3, 12.0.1) were published to npm on May 14, 2026 by a compromised maintainer account (atiertant). Each version contains an identical 80KB obfuscated payload appended to node-ipc.cjs that steals over 100 categories of sensitive files (SSH keys, cloud provider credentials, .env files, Kubernetes configs, AI tool configurations) and exfiltrates them as gzipped tar archives via DNS tunneling.
