Tracking Shai-Hulud: Inside the ChainDrop NPM Worm

ChainDrop, a Mini Shai-Hulud variant tied to TeamPCP, worms through npm via a compromised maintainer account and anchors C2 in an Ethereum smart contract.

On August 4, 2026, the self-propagating ChainDrop worm entered the npm ecosystem through a compromised maintainer account, poisoning packages including keyv, cacheable, and flat-cache. ChainDrop is a variant of Mini Shai-Hulud linked to the actor TeamPCP. It anchors its C2 infrastructure in an Ethereum smart contract, allowing domain rotation with a single blockchain transaction and defeating domain-based blocklists. The compromised keyv maintainer's GitHub account caused the project's own GitHub Actions release pipeline to publish malicious package versions.

Dogged Russia-based botnet dismantled after 23-year run

Law enforcement, CrowdStrike and Shadowserver dismantled the 23-year-old Sality P2P botnet that infected more than 11 million devices.

Sality, a Russia-based peer-to-peer botnet active for 23 years and infecting over 11 million devices, was dismantled by law enforcement working with CrowdStrike and the Shadowserver Foundation. CrowdStrike poisoned the botnet's peer list so infected machines permanently disappeared from the operator's view, while domains were seized in a coordinated effort involving the FBI, Justice Department, Europol and authorities from Bulgaria, Hungary and Romania. The financially motivated operation enabled cryptocurrency theft, DDoS attacks and other cyberattacks, and Europol said the effort dates back to 2017; the operators were not named.
