It retrieves a remote platform-specific payload, writes it to temporary storage, and launches it detached. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-05T15:24:23.764Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-05T15:25:02.843Z - **Download time:** 255 ms - **Static scan time:** 31 ms - **AI review time:** 38792 ms - **Total time:** 39079 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Importing the package invokes \_runtime.js. It retrieves a remote platform-specific payload, writes it to temporary storage, and launches it detached. - **Trigger:** Any Node.js require/import of the package entrypoint. - **Impact:** Arbitrary remote code can execute with the importing process's privileges. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_runtime.js, README.md, lib/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T15:25:02.843Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** import-time remote binary download, drop, and detached execution - **Attack narrative:** The ordinary package entrypoint silently requires \_runtime.js. On import, that module selects a platform payload URL, downloads a payload from rotating remote hosts or DNS TXT records, saves it under temporary storage, marks it executable on Unix, and starts it through a detached shell or cmd.exe process. The payload is remote-controlled and no integrity verification is performed. - **Rationale:** This is a concrete import-time staged payload execution chain unrelated to the advertised cobrowsing interface. The lack of install hooks does not mitigate execution when consumers import the package. - **Files touched:** index.js, \_runtime.js - **Network endpoints:** https://oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf101-adf.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 \_runtime.js on every package import., \_runtime.js fetches platform-specific binary payloads over HTTPS., \_runtime.js can reconstruct payloads from DNS TXT records., \_runtime.js writes, chmods, and detached-spawns the downloaded payload., Remote hosts and fallback .ru domains are obfuscated by string concatenation., README documents a normal require(), making import-time execution reachable. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts., No credential harvesting or AI-agent configuration mutation was found. ## Public findings ### 1.
