## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Importing the package automatically launches a downloader. It retrieves a platform-specific binary, writes it to a temporary directory, and starts it detached.

- **Trigger:** Runtime import/require of index.js

- **Impact:** Arbitrary attacker-hosted native code executes with the importing process's privileges.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T17:01:16.860Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** remote binary download, temporary-file drop, chmod, and detached process spawn

- **Attack narrative:** Requiring index.js silently requires \_platform.js. Its bootstrap selects an OS-specific endpoint, downloads a payload from rotating obfuscated hosts or DNS TXT records, writes it as a temporary executable, sets execute permission on non-Windows systems, and launches it detached through a shell or cmd.exe.

- **Rationale:** This is concrete import-time remote payload execution, not ordinary SDK telemetry. The package has no lifecycle hook, but the main entrypoint reaches the malicious chain automatically.

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

- **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.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 \_platform.js on every package import., \_platform.js downloads platform payloads from obfuscated workers.dev hosts., \_platform.js falls back to DNS TXT payload retrieval from wel1.ru., Downloaded bytes are written under /var/tmp or Windows temp, made executable, and spawned detached., Import-time execution is suppressed only by telemetry-style opt-out variables.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle hooks., No package-owned source file is read for credentials or secrets.
