Summary

Hide ▲

The Mastra AI supply-chain campaign was attributed to Sapphire Sleet / BlueNoroff, putting more than 140 npm packages and developer endpoints at risk of credential and crypto-wallet theft. Attackers compromised the npm maintainer account "ehindero" and used its publishing privileges to push malicious updates into the @mastra scope. Those updates injected easy-day-js, which ran a postinstall hook, contacted attacker-controlled C2 infrastructure, and downloaded a second-stage payload. The resulting stealer targeted Windows, Linux, and macOS systems and checked for 166 cryptocurrency wallet extensions.

    Microsoft attributes Mastra AI npm supply-chain compromise to Sapphire Sleet

    Attribution Update

    Microsoft attributed the Mastra AI supply-chain compromise affecting more than 140 npm packages to Sapphire Sleet, also known as BlueNoroff, and said attackers compromised the npm maintainer account "ehindero" to publish malicious updates across the @mastra scope. The poisoned packages injected easy-day-js, a typosquat of dayjs, and the install chain deployed a cross-platform stealer aimed at credentials, API keys, authentication tokens, and cryptocurrency wallets on Windows, Linux, and macOS systems.
