{"id":"MAL-2026-13650","summary":"Malicious code in sme-rko-finance-front-operations-widget-domain (npm)","details":"\n---\n_-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_\n\n## Source: amazon-inspector (13823f2899a1bfed6b46575763e7ee2629fa4d9388130713a88125b1f38d6dae)\nOn require() of this package, index.js loads _compat.js, which downloads a platform-specific native binary from Cloudflare Workers subdomains under oob-worker.cf*.workers.dev and, on failure, reassembles the payload from base64-encoded DNS TXT records under *.dl.wel1.ru. Destination hostnames and fallback resolver domains are hidden by joining split string fragments at runtime to evade static inspection. The downloaded binary is written to /var/tmp or %TEMP% under a disguised name (`.cache_\u003chex\u003e` or `dotnet_diag_\u003chex\u003e.exe`), chmodded to 0755, and spawned detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe. Naming choices (`analytics_state`, `DISABLE_TELEMETRY`, `dotnet_diag_*.exe`) and a cooldown stamp present the behavior as benign telemetry while the code fetches and executes attacker-controlled native code on every consumer that imports the package. The DNS-TXT fallback provides a covert delivery channel that bypasses HTTP egress controls.\n","modified":"2026-08-08T01:04:47.866559598Z","published":"2026-08-08T00:46:19Z","database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["35.8.1"],"id":"IN-MAL-2026-017159","import_time":"2026-08-08T00:53:07.670794841Z","modified_time":"2026-08-08T00:46:19Z","sha256":"13823f2899a1bfed6b46575763e7ee2629fa4d9388130713a88125b1f38d6dae"}]},"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/sme-rko-finance-front-operations-widget-domain/v/35.8.1"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"sme-rko-finance-front-operations-widget-domain","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/sme-rko-finance-front-operations-widget-domain"},"versions":["35.8.1"],"database_specific":{"cwes":[{"description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code","cweId":"CWE-506"}],"indicators":{"package_integrity":[{"hashes":{"sha512_sri":"sha512-ClxXRTk/BGnO4b3N45H54AZiwYRgvOsTgLVjF8pvg00bEPcp9Hcoxf4Haa8qrECfG9TrIGSPFVlUKcJ8SAQ/nA==","sha1":"80883baaabb2b17ee3689e201986aa48c2377325"},"filename":"sme-rko-finance-front-operations-widget-domain-35.8.1.tgz"}],"evidence_files":[{"path":"_compat.js","sha256":"3a305ad6834b55b3781391eead0e0f8a3f5ff53a325795d0d10d2c4103387154","tlsh":"9fa1845a16fb30180792e1d5851f6416719af5933684e8d4fb4c66984fe723883f3afc"}]},"source":"https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages/blob/main/osv/malicious/npm/sme-rko-finance-front-operations-widget-domain/MAL-2026-13650.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.8.0","credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
