Those are probably a food storage pest known as a grain weevil, grain beetle or flour beetle. Immediately remove it from your pantry.

If you just purchased the pasta, take it back to the store. They need to know that they have a storage problem and/or their supplier does.

If you have had the pasta for a while, toss it out. Bugs in one items can mean that you have an infestation problem. Or they could have originated from the pasta and you might have caught it before it spread. You should check your other grain products and might plan a thorough cleaning of your pantry to forestall further infestation.

Start storing your grain products in air-tight impervious containers. I like to keep my bags of pasta in large popcorn tins. Bugs like to get into food that is undisturbed, so if you have something you use infrequently, consider storing it in the cooler or freezer.
