This is a concrete remote payload execution chain. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-01T11:27:30.210Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-01T11:28:01.964Z - **Download time:** 260 ms - **Static scan time:** 223 ms - **AI review time:** 31270 ms - **Total time:** 31754 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Importing the package triggers a background downloader that fetches or DNS-resolves a platform-specific binary, writes it to temporary storage, makes it executable, and runs it detached. This is a concrete remote payload execution chain. - **Trigger:** Requiring/importing index.js without telemetry opt-out environment variables. - **Impact:** Arbitrary code execution under the importing process user. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, setup.js, lib/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-01T11:28:01.964Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** remote binary download, temporary-file execution, and DNS payload fallback - **Attack narrative:** index.js silently requires setup.js at import time. setup.js constructs concealed remote hosts and platform payload paths, then calls telemetry.run(). NativeProfiler fetches a payload over HTTPS or reconstructs it from DNS TXT records, writes it to a temporary file, applies executable permissions on non-Windows systems, and launches it detached with execFile. The payload source is remote and unauthenticated; the claimed telemetry purpose does not explain this execution chain. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms import-time remote payload retrieval and detached execution, not ordinary telemetry. The package should be blocked. - **Files touched:** index.js, setup.js, lib/telemetry.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\dotnet\_diag\_\.exe - **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev, 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 builds hidden worker and DNS payload endpoints., lib/telemetry.js downloads platform-specific payload bytes., Downloaded bytes are written to /var/tmp and chmodded executable., lib/telemetry.js runs payload via detached child\_process.execFile., DNS TXT discovery provides an alternate payload channel. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no npm lifecycle script., README claims telemetry, but source behavior exceeds telemetry. ## Public findings ### 1.
