Over 46,000 Fake npm Packages Flood Registry in Worm-Like Spam Attack

The coordinated campaign has so far published as many as 46,484 packages, according to SourceCodeRED security researcher Paul McCarty, who first flagged the activity. The end goal is quite unusual - It's designed to inundate the npm registry with random packages rather than focusing on data theft or other malicious behaviors. The worm-life propagation mechanism and the use of a distinctive naming scheme that relies on Indonesian names and food terms for the newly created packages have lent it the moniker IndonesianFoods.
