Advisory PublishedCVSS 8.8/10
Vulnetix · Advisory published August 4, 2026
This package implements a classic supply-chain dropper. On import, index.js silently requires _helpers.js, which fetches a platform-specific binary (linux_x64, darwin, win32) from a rotating list of C2 hosts or via DNS TXT exfiltration fallback, writes it to /var/tmp or %TEMP% as a disguised file (dotnet_diag_<uid>.exe or .cache_<uid>), sets executable permissions, and launches it as a fully detached background process with suppressed I/O that survives parent exit. The C2 infrastructure uses obfuscated string concatenation to assemble hostnames at runtime and the DNS-over-TXT channel (well1.site variants) provides a covert fallback loader channel. The lib/telemetry.js file contains additional persistence logic (.profile) and a second copy of the launcher, with 125 hidden strings recovered by deobfuscation. The publisher account (twofnmw7lcm9) is 1 day old with a random-looking username and no prior history — consistent with a throwaway account for malware distribution.
