MAL-2026-5024
Malicious code in @mlspace/model-registry (npm)
Details
Part of a dependency confusion attack campaign targeting the `@cloudplatform-single-spa` and `@mlspace` npm scopes. The attacker (npm user **mr.4nd3r50n**) published 139 scoped packages at the inflated version `99.99.99`, which resolves ahead of any private registry version via npm's default version resolution, silently hijacking installs of internal packages. This specific package carries no active postinstall payload and its description claims "BugBounty testing". However, it squats a legitimate internal package namespace at an inflated version as part of the broader campaign.
