## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Importing the advertised main entrypoint silently starts a remote binary loader. It retrieves a platform-specific payload, stores it in temporary storage, and executes it detached.

- **Trigger:** Any require/import of index.js

- **Impact:** Unconsented arbitrary native code execution under the importing process user.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_runtime.js, lib/telemetry.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T17:52:46.648Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** remote payload download, drop, and detached execution

- **Attack narrative:** The public entrypoint suppresses errors while importing \_runtime.js. That module automatically fetches a platform-specific binary from obfuscated worker hosts, or reconstructs one from DNS TXT records, writes it to a temporary file, marks it executable on Unix, and launches it detached through /bin/sh or cmd.exe. The activity is hidden behind telemetry-style naming and a timestamp gate.

- **Rationale:** This is a concrete import-time remote payload execution chain unrelated to the stated legacy wrapper functionality. The absence of install hooks does not mitigate execution when consumers load the package.

- **Files touched:** index.js, \_runtime.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\<random\>, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\analytics\_state, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\dotnet\_diag\_\<random\>.exe

- **Network endpoints:** https://oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev/pkg/package, c.sdk.dl.wel1.ru, c.ext.dl.wel1.ru, c.pkg.dl.wel1.ru, c.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 \_runtime.js on every package import., \_runtime.js downloads platform binaries from obfuscated workers.dev hosts., It falls back to DNS TXT payload retrieval from wel1.ru domains., Downloaded bytes are written to temp storage, chmodded, then detached-spawned via shell/cmd.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no npm lifecycle scripts., No AI-agent control-surface mutation was found.

- **Confidence:** 97.0%
- **Path:** lib/telemetry.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/boxy-maker-legacy@35.1.7/lib/telemetry.js>)

Source file is highly similar to a previously finalized malicious package; route for source-aware review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
matchType = normalized_sha256
matchedPackage = statist-browser-typed-client-mb.product.operations@20.4.9
matchedPath = lib/telemetry.js
