Mini Shai-Hulud Hits LeoPlatform npm Packages and GitHub Actions, Expands to the Go Ecosystem
released on 2026-06-26 @ 03:57:12 AM
A sophisticated supply chain attack campaign linked to Mini Shai-Hulud, Miasma, and Hades malware has compromised LeoPlatform npm packages, GitHub Actions workflows, and the Verana Blockchain Go module. The attack employs binding.gyp install-time execution, Bun-staged JavaScript malware, and encrypted credential exfiltration targeting developer and CI/CD environments. Malicious packages were published through the czirker and llxlr npm accounts in a coordinated burst on June 24, 2026. The campaign steals credentials including npm tokens, GitHub tokens, cloud provider credentials, SSH keys, and AI coding assistant configurations. Attackers use GitHub as dead-drop infrastructure and inject persistence hooks into repositories through orphan branches and fake dependency-update workflows. The RevokeAndItGoesKaboom marker connects this wave to the codfish/semantic-release-action compromise, indicating shared operational tooling.
