    Summary: Malicious code in maila-talijah-alpha-128 (npm)

    Details: Part of a self-republishing campaign: the package ships loop.js, which in a loop gives the package a new random name, bumps its version, rewrites package.json and runs `npm publish` to publish the package again under the new name. Self-replicating publication is the propagation step of a registry worm and fills the registry with copies. Version examined: 1.1.11; tarball SHA-256 ada56a62bf0b24e80c2cf729e7513e9a7072e3eb2ef9193c3f511beded852041.
