Analysis

This package, published as "Data transformation utilities", executes a remote binary download-and-run on require. Its index.js loads _shim.js, which fetches a binary payload over HTTPS from Cloudflare Workers hosts oob-worker[.]cf100-416[.]workers[.]dev, oob-worker[.]cf99-9b3[.]workers[.]dev, oob-worker[.]cf103-070[.]workers[.]dev, and oob-worker[.]cf102-baf[.]workers[.]dev at platform-specific paths (/pkg/package, /pkg/package-arm64, /pkg/loader_mac, /pkg/package.exe), with a DNS-TXT chunked fallback via the domains sdk[.]dl[.]wel1[.]ru, ext[.]dl[.]wel1[.]ru, pkg[.]dl[.]wel1[.]ru, and net[.]dl[.]wel1[.]ru. The downloaded payload is written to /var/tmp/.cache_<hex> (or dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe on Windows), made executable, and launched as a detached background process via /bin/sh -c '<path> &' or cmd.exe /c start /b. The bundled lib/telemetry.js is a decoy analytics facade. The package performs no data transformation; it is a remote-code-execution dropper.
