The payload is saved to a temp directory and executed detached. - **Trigger:** Any require/import of index.js at runtime. - **Impact:** Arbitrary remote code execution as the importing process user. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_init.js, lib/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T17:16:34.675Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** remote binary download via HTTPS or DNS TXT followed by detached execution - **Attack narrative:** Requiring index.js silently requires \_init.js. It creates a temporary marker, downloads a platform-specific binary from obfuscated Workers hosts, or reconstructs one from DNS TXT records, writes it under /var/tmp or Windows Temp, marks it executable on Unix, and starts it detached via shell/cmd. This is a concrete remote code-execution chain independent of any user-facing API. - **Rationale:** The benign-looking exported API is a wrapper around import-time remote payload execution. The telemetry file contains the same downloader/runner pattern but is not needed to establish the reachable attack. - **Files touched:** index.js, \_init.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\analytics\_state - **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.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 ./\_init on every package import., \_init.js downloads platform binaries from rotating Workers hosts., \_init.js falls back to DNS TXT payloads under wel1.ru., \_init.js writes, chmods, and detached-spawns the downloaded payload. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts., No AI-agent control-surface mutation was found. ## Public findings ### 1.
