AsyncAPI npm supply chain compromise via weaponized CI/CD workflows
- Engineer — Act: Confirmed supply chain compromise of AsyncAPI npm packages with import-time malware execution — audit all projects for AsyncAPI dependencies, check CI/CD build logs for the affected package versions, and rotate any secrets accessible from compromised build environments.
- SOC/IR — Act: Active campaign with malware delivered at import time via npm means CI/CD runner telemetry is the primary hunt surface — sweep build system logs for suspicious outbound connections or process spawns during npm install/import phases since the compromise window, and tune EDR rules to flag unusual child processes from package managers.
- Leader — Act: A weaponized CI/CD supply chain attack of this type can expose credentials and intellectual property across every project that consumed the affected packages — confirm internally whether AsyncAPI packages are in use, request an exposure assessment from engineering, and prepare to brief leadership given the potential scope.
