Security reminder: Another well-known developer and maintainer NPM account was hacked and injected into the wallet to steal malware

Source: BlockBeats
According to BlockBeats, on September 9, according to Socket monitoring, the ongoing NPM supply chain attacks have spread from the well-known developer Qix to another highly-known maintainer. The NPM account duckdb_admin, which is responsible for DuckDB-related packages, was hacked, and multiple malicious versions have been released. The injected code is the same as the wallet stealing malware used when a Qix account is damaged, which strongly suggests that both are part of the same attack. Previously, Ledger CTO said that a large-scale supply chain attack could face risks in the entire JavaScript ecosystem. But the NPM attackers failed and there were few victims.
