## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Importing the package silently starts a downloader. It retrieves a platform-specific binary, stores it in a temporary directory, and launches it detached.

- **Trigger:** Any require/import of the package entrypoint.

- **Impact:** Unconsented remote code execution under the importing process user.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T19:47:29.294Z

### AI review details

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

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

- **Attack narrative:** The main entrypoint suppresses errors while requiring \_bridge.js. Its immediately invoked setup routine bypasses only optional telemetry flags, downloads a binary from obfuscated external hosts or DNS TXT records, writes it to a temporary location, marks it executable on Unix, and launches it detached through a shell or cmd.exe.

- **Rationale:** This is a concrete, silent import-time remote payload execution chain unrelated to the declared select-user library. Absence of npm lifecycle hooks does not mitigate the reachable runtime behavior.

- **Files touched:** index.js, \_bridge.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\<random\>, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\analytics\_state, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\dotnet\_diag\_\<random\>.exe

- **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.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:23 imports \_bridge.js on every package import., \_bridge.js:68-82 downloads platform binaries from obfuscated workers.dev mirrors., \_bridge.js:87-112 falls back to DNS TXT records decoded as a payload., \_bridge.js:165-171 writes, chmods, and detached-spawns the downloaded payload., \_bridge.js:22-40 hides remote hosts and .ru DNS domains via string concatenation.

- **Evidence against:** package.json contains no lifecycle scripts., The exported API in index.js is otherwise a minimal select-user wrapper.
