Analysis

toast-react-slider@1.0.0 is a combosquat of the rc-slider React component. Its preinstall script runs an obfuscated JavaScript downloader (package/comin.js) that targets Windows systems. The downloader checks if os.type() returns 'Windows_NT', then uses curl to download a payload from a remote URL (constructed as hxxp://127[.]0[.]{address}/download[.]asp?token=2810) via exec(). After downloading, it verifies the file size against the server's reported size, executes the downloaded payload, and deletes it. The package also bundles a native Windows PE DLL at source/StartUpNode.dll (194560 bytes, internally named StartUpDll.dll) which imports CreateProcessW, SHGetFolderPathW, WriteFile, and CreateThread — capabilities consistent with file deployment and process execution. The legitimate rc-slider and rc-util source code is included as camouflage.
