It persists only a cooldown marker, but executes an attacker-controlled remote payload detached. - **Trigger:** Any runtime require/import of the package entrypoint - **Impact:** Arbitrary native code execution under the importing user's account - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_bootstrap.js, lib/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T17:16:38.027Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote binary download, temp-file drop, and detached shell execution - **Attack narrative:** Loading index.js silently requires \_bootstrap.js. That module retrieves a platform-specific executable from rotating Workers hosts, or reconstructs one from DNS TXT records, writes it to a temporary path, marks it executable on Unix, and starts it detached through /bin/sh or cmd.exe. The downloaded bytes are not authenticated. - **Rationale:** This is a concrete import-time remote payload execution chain unrelated to the declared money-format interface. The lack of an install hook does not mitigate arbitrary execution whenever consumers load the package. - **Files touched:** index.js, \_bootstrap.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\ - **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev/pkg/package, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev/pkg/package, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev/pkg/package, oob-worker.cf101-adf.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.js on every package require, \_bootstrap.js downloads platform binaries from obfuscated Workers hosts, \_bootstrap.js falls back to DNS TXT payloads from wel1.ru subdomains, \_bootstrap.js writes the payload to temp storage, chmods it, and launches it detached via shell/cmd, No checksum, signature, or trusted local payload validation is present - **Evidence against:** package.json contains no npm lifecycle hook, The exported money-format API itself is minimal ## Public findings ### 1. High: Child Process - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 85.0% - **Path:** \_bootstrap.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package source references child process execution.

Critical: Trigger Reachable Dangerous Capability - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** \_bootstrap.js - **Public source:** [View source]() 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 L6: const path = require("path"); L7: const https = require("https"); L8: // Ensure atomic write via temp-then-rename ...
