nodejs threats

Discussions on WindowsForum.com about Node.js threats focus on a coordinated campaign targeting developers with malicious Next.js repositories and Visual Studio Code automation. Microsoft Defender Experts uncovered this campaign, which uses fake technical assessments as lures to trigger in-memory JavaScript execution and command-and-control (C2) operations when developers open projects, start dev servers, or boot backends. The tag covers threats exploiting Node.js ecosystems, including supply chain attacks and developer workflow vulnerabilities. Topics include malicious npm packages, code execution risks, and security practices for Node.js environments on Windows systems.
