Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Blocked & quarantined** — Arbitrary remote code executes as the importing user's account. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution - **Selected version:** 35.5.9 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The benign-looking public API masks unconditional import-time remote payload staging and execution. No legitimate package function uses this behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-05T19:02:48.733Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-05T19:03:09.276Z - **Download time:** 255 ms - **Static scan time:** 28 ms - **AI review time:** 20260 ms - **Total time:** 20543 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Importing the package immediately loads \_shim.js. The shim fetches an opaque executable payload, drops it into a temp directory, and launches it detached. - **Trigger:** Runtime import of devplatform-spa-plugin-s3. - **Impact:** Arbitrary remote code executes as the importing user's account. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_shim.js, README.md, lib/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T19:03:09.276Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote binary download/DNS staging followed by detached execution. - **Attack narrative:** On import, index.js requires \_shim.js. It selects an OS payload URL, downloads a binary from rotating workers.dev hosts or reconstructs one from DNS TXT records under wel1.ru, writes it to a temporary path, marks it executable on Unix, and starts it detached through a shell or cmd.exe. The payload is opaque and remotely controlled. - **Rationale:** The benign-looking public API masks unconditional import-time remote payload staging and execution. No legitimate package function uses this behavior. - **Files touched:** index.js, \_shim.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\analytics\_state, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\dotnet\_diag\_\.exe - **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.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 block:** index.js imports \_shim on every package import., \_shim.js downloads platform-specific binaries over HTTPS., \_shim.js retrieves fallback payload bytes through DNS TXT., \_shim.js writes, chmods, and detached-spawns the payload., Execution is silent and guarded only by telemetry opt-out vars. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle hooks., No source evidence of credential harvesting before payload execution. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to devplatform-spa-plugin-s3@35.5.9. - Avoid installing devplatform-spa-plugin-s3@35.5.9. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
