24 npm Packages Abuse unpkg Mirrors to Host Fake Cloudflare CAPTCHA Pages

Researchers identified a campaign using 24 npm packages to host phishing pages that redirect users to fake Cloudflare CAPTCHA pages. The packages contain a single HTML file and rely on unpkg mirrors to serve the malicious content. Developers installing these packages are not the primary targets; instead, the infrastructure abuses npm for distribution.

Why it matters: Developers and users of npm packages may unknowingly encounter phishing pages, risking credential theft or malware exposure.
