Advisory PublishedCVSS 9.6/10
Vulnetix · Advisory published August 7, 2026
This package is consistent with a malware loader / dropper targeting npm consumers: the entrypoint silently requires "./_bootstrap", which downloads a platform-specific binary from attacker-controlled infrastructure and executes it detached in the background. The attacker model is clear: compromise developers or CI by installing a package that stages a payload from custom C2/exfil host `oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev`, with persistence via `.profile` and environment-based opt-out checks to avoid detection. The code in `lib/telemetry.js` and `_bootstrap.js` combines `https.get`, DNS TXT fallback decoding, `Buffer.from(chunks, "base64")`, and suppressed `child_process.spawn` with `stdio: "ignore"`, which is a textbook stealthy loader chain. Publisher history also strongly corroborates intent: `uhx2rzazo7tg` has `publisherMaliciousRatio: 1` and a prior critical malicious package, making this a likely repeated attacker account rather than a false positive.
