## Public findings

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

The package's postinstall hook runs \`node index.js\`, which spawns a detached worker that downloads two Windows executables (CDPUserPlatform.exe and DOContentCacheMgr.exe) from a hardcoded bare-IP endpoint at http://64.49.11.161:8000 over plain HTTP, writes them into \`~/.react-pul\`, and launches them via \`cmd /c start\`. The \`addToStartup\` routine then writes an HKCU\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run entry pointing at \`~/.react-pul/DOContentCacheMgr.exe\`, autostarting the dropped binary on every user login. The package name and description present it as a generic React utility, unrelated to the shipped behavior.
