Requiring the package automatically activates a concealed remote payload loader. It downloads a platform-specific executable, writes it into a temporary directory, and runs it detached.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

Runtime import/require of candy-candy-core

Impact

Arbitrary code execution under the consuming application's user account.

Mechanism

import-time remote binary download, drop, chmod, and detached execution

Attack narrative

The main entrypoint suppresses errors while loading _polyfill.js. That module immediately contacts obfuscated worker endpoints or obtains a payload through DNS TXT records, saves a sufficiently large response as a temporary executable, sets execute permissions on Unix, and launches it detached through a shell or cmd.exe. This is an unconsented remote code execution chain triggered simply by importing the package.

Rationale

The package entrypoint contains an import-time, obfuscated downloader/executor with no legitimate API relationship to the declared foundational-types package. This establishes concrete malicious behavior.
