If your team touches npm or PyPi - literally number 1 priority should be figuring out your playbook of defenses and response to these supply chain attacks. The threat actors aren't slowing down and they're SCREAMING their MO from the rooftops. Lock it down.

Update: Socket confirmed the Intercom compromise began with a local install of pyannote-audio, which pulled in compromised PyPI lightning as a transitive dependency. 🤯 That single install kicked off a chain of compromises: PyPI lightning → npm intercom-client → Packagist

Thanks to @SocketSecurity for quickly alerting us, so we could take down malicious intercom packages. First time we saw malware mimicking post install scripts not available in PHP with a plugin. Fortunately requires user input to enable a plugin, so no automatic execution in CI.
