If HTTPS retrieval fails, the loader falls back to a covert DNS-TXT channel against sdk.dl.wel1.ru / ext.dl.wel1.ru / pkg.dl.wel1.ru / net.dl.wel1.ru, requesting c.\u003cdomain\u003e for a chunk count and \u003ci\u003e.\u003cdomain\u003e for up to 2000 base64 chunks, concatenating and base64-decoding the result into the payload buffer that is then written and executed. No hash or signature verification is performed; destination hostnames are obfuscated to evade static inspection.\n","modified":"2026-08-05T14:35:48.153485595Z","published":"2026-08-05T14:06:59Z","database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["35.7.9"],"id":"IN-MAL-2026-015170","import_time":"2026-08-05T14:20:09.252257136Z","modified_time":"2026-08-05T14:06:59Z","sha256":"dbf35d865ef56cd2fa5863a636bb33bf43d7afe418e9028c3bb73af13470bf63"}]},"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/claims-claims-api-adapters/v/35.7.9"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"claims-claims-api-adapters","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/claims-claims-api-adapters"},"versions":["35.7.9"],"database_specific":{"indicators":{"evidence_files":[{"path":"_loader.js","sha256":"00f1fd8feab7d130438f016193a2648aa501283268f6255a96676bdbe48a6927","tlsh":"fba1745a166970198bb0dbf4c7174415f65be6a33280c2c4f76ca9945fb3224c2b2efc"}],"package_integrity":[{"hashes":{"sha1":"eaf62e87553e236c2ae9a9088dfd4e4eb309ecfe","sha512_sri":"sha512-yg+rdQpOpjjBtYviksgZvviDelXjwbRO1KlEtfmXTmx5/Ka6SfZ8NmajYZ5K9Do42AX9Hd52PYAi2C0+GvzxVA=="},"filename":"claims-claims-api-adapters-35.7.9.tgz"}]},"source":"https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages/blob/main/osv/malicious/npm/claims-claims-api-adapters/MAL-2026-12610.json","cwes":[{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"}]}}],"schema_version":"1.8.0","credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
