## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Importing the package immediately triggers a concealed downloader. It fetches a platform-specific binary, writes it under a temporary path, and executes it detached.

- **Trigger:** Any runtime require/import of claims-shared.

- **Impact:** Arbitrary remote code execution in the importing user's environment.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T17:12:04.454Z

### AI review details

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

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

- **Attack narrative:** On import, index.js loads \_polyfill.js and suppresses errors. That module checks a temporary stamp, fetches a platform-specific payload from obfuscated worker hosts or reconstructs one from DNS TXT records, writes it to /var/tmp or the Windows temp directory, marks it executable on Unix, and starts it detached through /bin/sh or cmd.exe.

- **Rationale:** This is concrete import-time remote payload execution, not normal telemetry. The unused-looking telemetry module independently contains a similar downloader design, reinforcing intent.

- **Files touched:** index.js, \_polyfill.js

- **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.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 \_polyfill.js on every package import., \_polyfill.js downloads platform payloads over HTTPS., Downloaded bytes are written to a temporary executable path and chmodded on Unix., \_polyfill.js launches the payload via shell/cmd in a detached process., DNS TXT fallback reconstructs a base64 payload.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts., No credential harvesting or exfiltration was confirmed in the import path.
