It writes the payload to temporary storage and executes it detached. - **Trigger:** Runtime import/require of the package main entrypoint. - **Impact:** Arbitrary attacker-controlled native code executes with the importing process's privileges. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_bridge.js, lib/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T17:52:47.874Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** import-time remote binary download, drop, chmod, and detached execution - **Attack narrative:** The declared entrypoint suppresses errors while importing \_bridge.js. That module runs immediately, fetches a platform-specific opaque payload from hard-coded remote hosts or DNS TXT records, stores it under a hidden/random temporary filename, makes it executable on Unix, and launches it through a detached shell or cmd.exe process. - **Rationale:** This is a concrete import-time remote payload execution chain, not ordinary telemetry. The hidden loader and DNS fallback make the downloaded executable attacker-controlled and unauditable at review time. - **Files touched:** index.js, \_bridge.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\ - **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, sdk.dl.wel1.ru, ext.dl.wel1.ru, pkg.dl.wel1.ru, net.dl.wel1.ru ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** index.js imports \_bridge.js on every package import., \_bridge.js downloads platform binaries from four workers.dev hosts., \_bridge.js falls back to DNS TXT payloads from wel1.ru hosts., \_bridge.js writes the payload to a temp file, chmods it, and starts it detached., No lifecycle hook is needed; importing the declared main triggers it. - **Evidence against:** package.json declares no install lifecycle scripts., No credential or environment-value exfiltration was found in the entrypoint loader. ## Public findings ### 1.
