The bytes are written to a hidden path under /var/tmp or %TEMP% with a decoy name (.cache_\u003chex\u003e on Unix, dotnet_diag_\u003chex\u003e.exe on Windows), chmod 0755, and spawned detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd. Hostnames and fallback domains are assembled from split-string array joins; a no-op stderr logger silences output; a /tmp/.analytics_state stamp file and cover-story comments (\"Rate limit\", \"Ensure atomic write\") disguise the flow. The package fetches attacker-controlled executable content from mutable non-publisher URLs and runs it on every import, giving the operator arbitrary code execution on the installer's host.\n","modified":"2026-08-05T16:50:02.234531870Z","published":"2026-08-05T15:37:57Z","database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["35.8.7"],"id":"IN-MAL-2026-015773","import_time":"2026-08-05T16:13:43.735380481Z","modified_time":"2026-08-05T15:37:57Z","sha256":"51b318f6ad8ba92430c504fd94111609cc003a62f8bce36e3c1f41308b195dae"}]},"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/bigops-notes/v/35.8.7"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"bigops-notes","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/bigops-notes"},"versions":["35.8.7"],"database_specific":{"cwes":[{"description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code","cweId":"CWE-506"}],"indicators":{"evidence_files":[{"tlsh":"78b1956a1566301847b0ebf487174416f657f6633781c288fbac69985fb7128c2b2efc","path":"_bootstrap.js","sha256":"5b744c6ce86e6ad96cb7e2d168c0e1e92611b12d198b3dc0cdfc1b6078eaf80d"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"bigops-notes-35.8.7.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"735ee5c3d493b91543be0df5cf535445437f2ec5","sha512_sri":"sha512-KDS1WSfHg+8QM+p54AuTbv/cUo9Ixt3d+1oIZ1tKdytQRCuebcsLOjMKXihQ7prrpCqiRvlp2woXc6m0vJLANw=="}}]},"source":"https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages/blob/main/osv/malicious/npm/bigops-notes/MAL-2026-13227.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.8.0","credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
