MAL-2026-18663: Malicious code in pearx93qja-notthedevs (npm)

Part of a self-republishing campaign: the package ships autochange2.js, which in a loop gives the package a new random name, 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: 1.1.8; tarball SHA-256 938dfb2c4192301e0c212617e4e459e1a4af51beed1d2ca862b68f9c2e6a3595.
