It downloads or DNS-reconstructs a platform-specific binary, drops it in a temp directory, and launches it detached. - **Trigger:** Any runtime require/import of index.js. - **Impact:** Arbitrary attacker-controlled native code executes as the importing process user. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_shim.js, lib/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-08T13:34:56.411Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote binary download/DNS staging followed by detached execution. - **Attack narrative:** Requiring index.js silently loads \_shim.js. Its init routine fetches a platform-specific binary from obfuscated worker domains, with DNS TXT chunk retrieval as a fallback. It writes the payload to /var/tmp (or the Windows temp directory), makes it executable on Unix, and starts it via a detached shell or cmd.exe process. The exported telemetry module contains a parallel configurable native-profiler loader with the same drop-and-execute pattern. - **Rationale:** This is concrete import-time staged payload execution, not normal telemetry: the downloaded bytes are executed without signature or hash verification. The absence of lifecycle hooks does not mitigate runtime compromise on package import. - **Files touched:** index.js, \_shim.js, lib/telemetry.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\ - **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.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 imports \_shim on every package import., \_shim.js downloads platform binaries from rotating worker hosts., \_shim.js can reconstruct a binary through DNS TXT records., \_shim.js writes a hidden temp executable, chmods it, then detached-spawns it., Remote binary execution is silent and has no integrity verification., lib/telemetry.js duplicates the download-and-execute profiler capability. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no npm lifecycle hooks., No credential harvesting or AI-agent configuration writes found. ## Public findings ### 1.
