Programmer's Area

Researchers at Microsoft and North Carolina State University found that thousands of JS developers used email addresses with expired domain names, which would make their projects on NPM (Node Package Manager) vulnerable to hijacking. The researchers analyzed metadata uploaded to 1,630,101 libraries uploaded to the NPM Package Manager. NPM is the largest package repository. The researchers found that 2,818 project maintainers' accounts were still using expired email addresses, while some of the expired domains were being sold on sites like GoDaddy. The researchers believe that an attacker could purchase the domain name, register the addresses of these maintainers on the email server, and then reset the maintainer's account password to take over the NPM package.
