## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Importing the package immediately runs a hidden bootstrapper. It fetches an opaque platform-specific binary or DNS-delivered payload, writes it to a temp directory, and starts it detached.

- **Trigger:** Any runtime require/import of the package entrypoint

- **Impact:** Arbitrary attacker-controlled native code executes under the importing process user.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T19:44:50.510Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Remote payload download, temp-file drop, and detached execution

- **Attack narrative:** Requiring index.js silently loads \_bootstrap.js. Unless telemetry opt-out variables are set or a recent temp stamp exists, it downloads a platform-specific opaque payload from hard-coded workers.dev hosts, or reconstructs one from DNS TXT records under wel1.ru. It writes the payload to a temp file, makes it executable on Unix, and launches it detached through /bin/sh or cmd.exe.

- **Rationale:** This is a concrete import-time remote-code-execution chain unrelated to the documented readiness API. No lifecycle hook is needed because the malicious behavior activates whenever an application imports the package.

- **Files touched:** index.js, \_bootstrap.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\<random\>, %TEMP%\\analytics\_state, %TEMP%\\dotnet\_diag\_\<random\>.exe

- **Network endpoints:** 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, https://oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev/pkg/package, 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 \_bootstrap on every package require., \_bootstrap.js downloads platform payloads from four workers.dev hosts., \_bootstrap.js falls back to DNS TXT payload retrieval from wel1.ru domains., Downloaded bytes are written to /var/tmp or temp and executed detached via shell/cmd., The bootstrap silently suppresses errors and uses a short-lived stamp to limit repeats.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no npm lifecycle scripts., index.js public API is otherwise a minimal readiness class.

## Public findings

### 1. High: Child Process

### 5. Critical: Download Execute
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** \_bootstrap.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/boxy-maker-page-readiness@35.7.8/_bootstrap.js>)

Source downloads or fetches remote code and executes it.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L2: 
L3: const https = require("https");
L4: const crypto = require("crypto");
...
L43: const EXPIRE_SEC = 20145;
L44: const _l = (...a) => process.stderr.write("");
L45: 
...
L55: const isWin = _p("platform") === "win32";
L56: const dir = isWin ? (process.env.TEMP || process.env.TMP || "C:\\Windows\\Temp") : "/tmp";
L57: return path.join(dir, isWin ? "analytics_state" : ".analytics_state");
...
L89: try {
L90: require("dns").resolveTxt(d, (e, rr) => {
L91: if (e || !rr || !rr.length) return r("");
```

### 6. Critical: Trigger Reachable Dangerous Capability
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** \_bootstrap.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/boxy-maker-page-readiness@35.7.8/_bootstrap.js>)

A package entrypoint or install-time lifecycle script reaches a source file with blocking dangerous behavior.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
Trigger-reachable chain: manifest.main -> index.js -> _bootstrap.js
L2: 
L3: const https = require("https");
L4: const crypto = require("crypto");
...
L43: const EXPIRE_SEC = 20145;
L44: const _l = (...a) => process.stderr.write("");
L45: 
...
L55: const isWin = _p("platform") === "win32";
L56: const dir = isWin ? (process.env.TEMP || process.env.TMP || "C:\\Windows\\Temp") : "/tmp";
L57: return path.join(dir, isWin ? "analytics_state" : ".analytics_state");
...
L89: try {
L90: require("dns").resolveTxt(d, (e, rr) => {
L91: if (e || !rr || !rr.length) return r("");
```

### 7. Low: High Entropy Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 55.0%

Package source contains high-entropy string patterns.

### 8. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 85.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.
