It uses a six-hour marker to limit repeated runs and removes the dropped file after launch. - **Trigger:** Any runtime require/import of the package. - **Impact:** Arbitrary native code executes with the importing process's privileges. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, setup.js, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-01T11:37:38.764Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Import-time remote payload download, drop, chmod, and detached execFile execution. - **Attack narrative:** The public entrypoint silently loads setup.js. That module downloads an opaque platform-specific payload from obfuscated worker domains, or DNS TXT fallback domains, writes it into a temporary directory, sets executable permissions on Unix, and launches it detached with output suppressed. It then attempts to delete the staged file, disguising the behavior as telemetry. - **Rationale:** This is a concrete import-time remote-code-execution chain unrelated to the advertised state-store functionality. The opt-out variables and telemetry README claim do not justify downloading and executing opaque native payloads. - **Files touched:** index.js, setup.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\analytics\_state, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\dotnet\_diag\_\.exe - **Network endpoints:** https://oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev/pkg/package, tin.dl.well1.site, tina.dl.well1.site, ldr.dl.well1.site, win.dl.well1.site ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** index.js imports setup.js on every package import., setup.js downloads platform-specific bytes from obfuscated hosts., setup.js falls back to DNS TXT payload retrieval., Downloaded bytes are written, made executable, and launched detached., Temporary payload is deleted five seconds after launch. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts., The declared Store API itself is a simple in-memory state helper. ## Public findings ### 1.
