It downloads, writes, and detached-executes an opaque platform-specific binary. - **Trigger:** Any runtime require/import of index.js. - **Impact:** Arbitrary attacker-controlled native code execution under the importing process user. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_loader.js, lib/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T17:08:00.740Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote binary download with DNS fallback and detached execution. - **Attack narrative:** The public entrypoint suppresses errors while loading \_loader.js. On import, that loader contacts rotating worker endpoints for an opaque payload, with DNS TXT fallback domains, stores it in a temporary executable path, and launches it detached through /bin/sh or cmd.exe. The behavior is unrelated to the advertised Redis wrapper and provides remote code execution. - **Rationale:** Concrete import-time remote payload acquisition and execution establishes malicious behavior. The absence of an npm lifecycle hook does not mitigate the reachable import-time loader. - **Files touched:** index.js, \_loader.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\ - **Network endpoints:** https://oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf100-416.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 \_loader.js on every package import., \_loader.js downloads platform-specific binary data, including from workers.dev hosts., \_loader.js falls back to DNS TXT payload retrieval from \*.wel1.ru., Downloaded data is written to a temp path, made executable on Unix, then spawned detached via shell/cmd. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts., lib/telemetry.js is not imported by the public entrypoint. ## Public findings ### 1.

Critical: Trigger Reachable Dangerous Capability - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** \_loader.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 -> _loader.js L5: const os = require("os"); L6: const https = require("https"); L7: const path = require("path"); ...
