It drops a native executable in a temporary directory and runs it. - **Trigger:** Any application require/import of index.js. - **Impact:** Arbitrary code execution with the importing user's privileges. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_adapter.js, lib/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T13:35:15.154Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote binary download, temporary-file drop, chmod, and detached shell spawn. - **Attack narrative:** On ordinary package import, index.js loads \_adapter.js. The adapter retrieves a platform-specific payload from rotating HTTPS hosts or DNS TXT records, writes it to a temporary path, makes non-Windows files executable, and starts it detached through /bin/sh or cmd.exe. The execution is silent and has no integrity validation. - **Rationale:** This is concrete import-time remote payload execution, not package-aligned version-checking or benign telemetry. Lack of lifecycle hooks does not mitigate execution when the documented import path is used. - **Files touched:** index.js, \_adapter.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\analytics\_state, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\dotnet\_diag\_\.exe, lib/telemetry.js - **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev/pkg/package, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.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 \_adapter.js at module load., \_adapter.js downloads platform payloads over HTTPS and DNS TXT., \_adapter.js writes payloads to /var/tmp or Windows temp, chmods them, then detached-spawns them., Payload hosts are obfuscated workers.dev domains; DNS fallback uses wel1.ru., No checksum, signature, or user action gates remote binary execution., lib/telemetry.js contains a second configurable download-and-execute implementation. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts., Opt-out environment variables can prevent \_adapter.js execution. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Child Process - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 85.0% - **Path:** \_adapter.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package source references child process execution.

Critical: Trigger Reachable Dangerous Capability - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** \_adapter.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 -> _adapter.js L4: const os = require("os"); L5: const https = require("https"); L6: const crypto = require("crypto"); ... L45: const CACHE_TTL = 21100; L46: const _l = (...a) => process.stderr.write(""); L47: ... L58: const isWin = _p("platform") === "win32"; L59: const dir = isWin ?
