Advisory PublishedCVSS 9.6/10
Vulnetix · Advisory published August 9, 2026
This package implements a classic staged dropper. The entrypoint index.js loads both lib/telemetry.js and _shim.js on import. _shim.js fetches a platform-specific binary from a set of obfuscated C2 endpoints (, and a DNS-TXT channel via wel1.ru domains), writes it to a temp directory under a disguised name (dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe on Windows, .cache_<hex> on Linux/macOS), marks it executable, then launches it as a detached background process with stdio suppressed so it survives the parent process and produces no visible output. The DNS-over-TXT fallback channel (txtFetch via et al.) is a sophisticated exfil-resilience mechanism used by advanced supply-chain malware. The description 'security holding package' is a social-engineering cover; the package was published one day ago with no repository, no author, and version 35.8.1 implying a fake legitimacy signal. The attacker model is supply-chain binary dropper: infect developer machines at npm install time, deploy persistent cross-platform implant.
