About this tag
The asyncapi tag covers security reporting and response guidance for compromised AsyncAPI packages in the npm ecosystem. Its current coverage focuses on five malicious releases of AsyncAPI specifications and generator-related modules, which Microsoft Threat Intelligence said could execute a second-stage payload when imported. The discussion is relevant to Windows developer workstations, CI runners, container builds, and production Node.js services, including environments where npm lifecycle scripts are disabled. Follow coverage here for practical remediation themes such as removing affected imports and rotating secrets after a suspected exposure.
