Gitlab's post and the linked discussion thread are both from November 24th 2025. I may be misreading the parent comment, but I'm personally thankful there isn't a Return of the Return of Shai-Hulud, as I assumed this was a third recent incident. For those concerned about these attacks, Helixguard's post (from the linked discussion) lists out the packages they found to be effected, while Gitlab's post gives more information on how the attack works. Since it's self-propagating though, assume the list of affected packages might be longer as more NPM tokens are compromised.
