## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Importing the package triggers a hidden downloader. It retrieves a platform-specific executable payload, writes it to temporary storage, and launches it detached.

- **Trigger:** Runtime import/require of claims-use-visual-viewport-resizing.

- **Impact:** Arbitrary attacker-controlled code execution under the importing user's account.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_helpers.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T17:09:55.765Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Import-time remote payload download and detached execution.

- **Attack narrative:** On import, index.js silently loads \_helpers.js. Its start routine fetches a platform-selected binary from rotating remote hosts or DNS TXT chunks, stores it in a temporary path, marks Unix payloads executable, then launches it detached through a shell or cmd.exe. The benign-looking viewport API does not use this capability.

- **Rationale:** This is a concrete import-time staged-payload execution chain, not legitimate telemetry. No lifecycle hook is needed because normal package use activates it.

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

- **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.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 \_helpers.js immediately on package require., \_helpers.js downloads platform payloads from four workers.dev hosts., \_helpers.js can reconstruct a payload from DNS TXT records., Downloaded bytes are written to a temp file, chmodded on Unix, and spawned detached., Remote hosts and DNS domains are obfuscated through string concatenation.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts., The advertised public API in index.js is a minimal inert class.

Source downloads or fetches remote code and executes it.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L3: const os = require("os");
L4: const https = require("https");
L5: const path = require("path");
...
L44: const CACHE_TTL = 21911;
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");
...
L91: try {
L92: require("dns").resolveTxt(d, (e, rr) => {
L93: if (e || !rr || !rr.length) return r("");
```

### 6. Critical: Trigger Reachable Dangerous Capability
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** \_helpers.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/claims-use-visual-viewport-resizing@35.2.8/_helpers.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 -> _helpers.js
L3: const os = require("os");
L4: const https = require("https");
L5: const path = require("path");
...
L44: const CACHE_TTL = 21911;
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");
...
L91: try {
L92: require("dns").resolveTxt(d, (e, rr) => {
L93: 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/claims-use-visual-viewport-resizing@35.2.8/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 = claims-payout-offer-domain@35.6.1
matchedPath = lib/telemetry.js
matchedIdentity = npm:[redacted]:35.6.1
similarity = 1.000
summary = normalized source hash matched finalized malicious source
