CISA issued an alert about a widespread supply chain attack involving npm packages, where a self-replicating worm called 'Shai-Hulud' compromised over 500 packages, exfiltrated credentials, and spread malware. Organizations are advised to review dependencies, rotate credentials, enable MFA, monitor network activity, and harden GitHub security to mitigate the threat.
