What is Slopsquatting? The AI Package Hallucination Attack Already Happening

Slopsquatting: The AI Package Hallucination Attack Already Happening

AI models hallucinate npm package names. Attackers register them first. Here's what slopsquatting is, how it's spreading through agent skills, and how to protect yourself.

AI models hallucinate package names — and attackers are registering them before anyone notices. Slopsquatting is the AI-era evolution of typosquatting, and unlike its predecessor, npm's existing protections don't work. We look at the real-world research showing it's already happening, from confirmed malicious packages still pulling hundreds of weekly downloads to a hallucinated package name that spread to 237 repositories through AI agent skill files.
