Host strings are reassembled from split arrays at runtime and execution is gated by environment variables (DISABLE_TELEMETRY, ANALYTICS_OPT_OUT, DO_NOT_TRACK) plus a marker file at /tmp/.analytics_state to mimic legitimate telemetry. A second, currently-unreferenced dropper module at lib/telemetry.js is shipped alongside and performs the same base64-decode -\u003e chmod 755 -\u003e spawn /bin/sh chain under an 'analytics SDK' cover story.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (6a9e2c06ce50f9e0d2275d948ef9c802f9c234f8283c30416a745d3db3d1b46d)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.\n","aliases":["GHSA-j5w7-ccfc-4mrf"],"modified":"2026-08-06T01:19:59.680419764Z","published":"2026-08-05T15:02:40Z","database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-015545","import_time":"2026-08-05T15:19:57.251964145Z","modified_time":"2026-08-05T15:02:40Z","sha256":"da1b7311c033191d85d0d19c679ac9d453f7517897b57618d0d8977d654daf94","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["35.8.4"]},{"source":"ghsa-malware","id":"GHSA-j5w7-ccfc-4mrf","import_time":"2026-08-06T00:58:53.395175651Z","modified_time":"2026-08-05T18:41:09Z","ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"sha256":"6a9e2c06ce50f9e0d2275d948ef9c802f9c234f8283c30416a745d3db3d1b46d"}]},"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/bigops-telephony/v/35.8.4"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-j5w7-ccfc-4mrf"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"bigops-telephony","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/bigops-telephony"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["35.8.4"],"database_specific":{"indicators":{"evidence_files":[{"sha256":"a9c2057fa0f234765c2e3804947e2d3f9cc691caa490f579221d0f2aa02ec47b","tlsh":"d3a1a79a15a6701d8bb0dbf4c71b5416f657e663338082c4fb5c69981fb22244372efc","path":"_adapter.js"},{"sha256":"2b2332cdb3bdfd8980c0d32fe4d9828f0c62bec0aa186ea18eab8db45689f509","tlsh":"7e835055566a242186b2b368df234107ff3685272643429dbafc82dc1fbd72092a5ffc","path":"lib/telemetry.js"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"bigops-telephony-35.8.4.tgz","hashes":{"sha512_sri":"sha512-cW4S5fJ4QOA8Qa5Nbi/FWlDmy+KKeRdTyr6DpG7fc0D9JTuGTnXROaOQ/cmNU2ZcZ6A9NvtDt7wPDV6sHg5ISg==","sha1":"4d83e61fa9188734f0832378da6f501127f0a8ad"}}]},"source":"https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages/blob/main/osv/malicious/npm/bigops-telephony/MAL-2026-12840.json","cwes":[{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"},{"name":"Embedded Malicious Code","cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature."}]}}],"schema_version":"1.8.0","credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
