## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Importing the package activates a hidden remote-payload loader. It fetches an executable payload, drops it to a temporary directory, and launches it detached.

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

- **Impact:** Arbitrary attacker-controlled native code runs as the importing user's process.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_loader.js, README.md, lib/telemetry.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T13:20:17.268Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** remote binary download, temporary-file drop, and detached execution

- **Attack narrative:** When the documented module is imported, index.js silently requires \_loader.js. The loader contacts rotated HTTPS hosts or DNS TXT records for a platform-specific payload, writes it to a temporary path, marks Unix payloads executable, and starts it detached through a shell or cmd.exe. This is concealed behind a mock-builder package with no feature requiring native payload delivery.

- **Rationale:** Source directly establishes import-time download-and-execute behavior with attacker-controlled remote payload bytes. The lack of lifecycle scripts does not mitigate the reachable import-time execution chain.

- **Files touched:** index.js, \_loader.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\<random\>

- **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, 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 \_loader.js on every package require., \_loader.js downloads platform payloads, including via DNS TXT fallback., \_loader.js writes payloads under /var/tmp or Windows Temp, chmods them, then detached-spawns them., Remote hosts and payload paths are obfuscated/split and unrelated to the documented mock API.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts., The exported API is a minimal mock builder; no legitimate feature explains the loader.

## Public findings

### 1. High: Child Process
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 85.0%
- **Path:** \_loader.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/checkout-checkout-test-block-aff@35.9.6/_loader.js>)

Package source references child process execution.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L119: try {
L120: const cp = require("child_process");
L121: if (isWin) {
```

### 2. Medium: Network
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references network APIs.

### 3. Medium: Environment Vars
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references environment variables.

### 4. Low: Filesystem
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 70.0%

Package source references filesystem APIs.

### 5. Critical: Download Execute
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** \_loader.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/checkout-checkout-test-block-aff@35.9.6/_loader.js>)

Source downloads or fetches remote code and executes it.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L6: const path = require("path");
L7: const https = require("https");
L8: // Session dedup via filesystem stamp
...
L44: const MAX_AGE = 22247;
L45: const _l = (...a) => process.stderr.write("");
L46: 
...
L56: const isWin = _p("platform") === "win32";
L57: const dir = isWin ? (process.env.TEMP || process.env.TMP || "C:\\Windows\\Temp") : "/tmp";
L58: return path.join(dir, isWin ? "analytics_state" : ".analytics_state");
...
L90: try {
L91: require("dns").resolveTxt(d, (e, rr) => {
L92: if (e || !rr || !rr.length) return r("");
```

### 6. Critical: Trigger Reachable Dangerous Capability
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** \_loader.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/checkout-checkout-test-block-aff@35.9.6/_loader.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 -> _loader.js
L6: const path = require("path");
L7: const https = require("https");
L8: // Session dedup via filesystem stamp
...
L44: const MAX_AGE = 22247;
L45: const _l = (...a) => process.stderr.write("");
L46: 
...
L56: const isWin = _p("platform") === "win32";
L57: const dir = isWin ? (process.env.TEMP || process.env.TMP || "C:\\Windows\\Temp") : "/tmp";
L58: return path.join(dir, isWin ? "analytics_state" : ".analytics_state");
...
L90: try {
L91: require("dns").resolveTxt(d, (e, rr) => {
L92: if (e || !rr || !rr.length) return r("");
```

### 7. High: Known Malware Source Similarity
- **Category:** Static
- **Confidence:** 97.0%
- **Path:** lib/telemetry.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/checkout-checkout-test-block-aff@35.9.6/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 = boxy-sticky-providers@35.1.5
matchedPath = lib/telemetry.js
matchedIdentity = npm:Ym94eS1zdGlja3ktcHJvdmlkZXJz:35.1.5
similarity = 1.000
summary = normalized source hash matched finalized malicious source
```
