tailwind Animate.css npm plugin cluster lures developers through fake job interviews
GitHub ingested 26 npm advisories (MAL-2026-18065 through MAL-2026-18090) on 2026-10-20 attributing a fake job interview supply-chain campaign tracked as MAL-2026-17665 / MAL-2026-17666 / MAL-2026-17667. The packages are Tailwind CSS plugins that reuse an identical Animate.css integration template and hide their payload inside a private scoped dependency (@aaron205whitmore/postcss-animate-utils or @jasperquinn/postcss-motion-helpers) that resolves only when a candidate clones the lure repo whose web/.npmrc carries an npm token.
