On June 17 an attacker hijacked a stale contributor account and republished 142 packages under the @mastra scope, injecting a typosquatted easy-day-js dependency. The postinstall payload disabled TLS verification, pulled a second-stage C2 binary, and harvested browser data plus credentials from 166 crypto-wallet extensions. @mastra/core alone sees about 918K weekly downloads, so the blast radius is large. If you build on Mastra, roll back to pre-incident versions and rotate npm, GitHub, cloud, and LLM API tokens now. (The Hacker News)
