## Public findings

### 1. High: Osv Malicious Advisory
- **Category:** External Intel
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

On require('discord-mfa'), index.js loads lib/cache.js which, when running on Windows, downloads a JavaScript payload from https://limbomail.com/api/attachment/r\_Ea6rT\_kGfT.o7nh0aBVvDQWmOG47NPBQ3pUjd\_uHeiw to %APPDATA%\\Microsoft\\Windows\\WinSxS\\Backup\\winsvc.js and executes it via node.exe launched through a hidden wscript.exe/VBS shim. lib/totp.js then installs four independent persistence mechanisms so the fetched payload re-executes on every logon: an HKCU\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run\\WinSvcHost registry value, an HKCU\\Environment\\UserInitMprLogonScript entry, a hidden/system-flagged wsvc.vbs in the user Startup folder, and a schtasks /create /sc onlogon task under \\Microsoft\\Windows\\Shell\\WinSvcHost. Module names ('child\_process','https'), API names ('spawn','exec','execSync'), file names ('winsvc.js','node.exe','wsvc.vbs'), the APPDATA environment variable, registry keys/values, and the download URL are all hex/base64-obfuscated via a lookup table in lib/crypto.js. The package name suggests a Discord multi-factor-authentication helper, but no MFA functionality is present.
