    Summary: Malicious code in peas-tea-curut (npm)

    Details: Part of a self-republishing campaign: the package ships autopublish2.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: 3.2.2; tarball SHA-256 e887a49dfe5c01208b4dc497890226822f1e98ffce96b2c7125b5b5a569fb39c.
