About this page

This page explains the Axios supply chain attack. On March 31, 2026, an attacker using compromised maintainer credentials published malicious Axios versions (1.14.1 and 0.30.4) to npm. Within a three-hour window, systems running npm install without pinned versions were silently infected with a cross-platform remote access trojan. The malware targeted macOS, Windows, and Linux, established persistence, and deleted traces. With 83 million weekly downloads, Axios affects millions of projects globally, making this a critical security incident.
