It saves an unverified native payload to a temporary directory and launches it detached. - **Trigger:** Any require/import of cobrowsing-configs - **Impact:** Arbitrary remote code executes with the importing process's privileges. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_polyfill.js, lib/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T17:08:00.223Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote binary download, DNS payload fallback, and detached execution - **Attack narrative:** The package entrypoint silently loads \_polyfill.js. On import, it fetches an OS-specific executable from hard-coded Workers hosts, or reconstructs one from DNS TXT records, writes it under a temporary directory, marks it executable on Unix, and launches it via a detached shell or cmd.exe process. No integrity verification or user action is required. - **Rationale:** This is concrete import-time remote payload execution, not configuration-loading functionality. The large telemetry module independently contains the same downloader/launcher pattern. - **Files touched:** index.js, \_polyfill.js - **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.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 at module load., \_polyfill.js downloads OS-specific binaries over HTTPS., \_polyfill.js uses DNS TXT as a base64 payload fallback., \_polyfill.js writes, chmods, and detached-spawns the payload., Payload hosts resolve to oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev and two sibling worker hosts. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts. ## Public findings ### 1.
