On require() of the package, index.js loads ext.js which downloads a platform-specific binary from runtime-assembled Cloudflare workers.dev hostnames (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, cf100-416, cf101-adf, cf103-070) with a DNS-TXT covert-channel fallback against subdomains of dl.well1.site (tin/ldr/win.dl.well1.site) that reassembles base64 chunks into executable bytes. The fetched payload is written to /var/tmp or %TEMP% under disguised names (.cache on Unix, dotnet_diag_.exe on Windows), chmod +x'd, and spawned detached via spawn("/bin/sh",["-c",fp+" &"],{detached:true}) or spawn("cmd",...). C2 hostnames are assembled at runtime via ["oob-work","er.cf103-07","0.workers.","dev"].join("") to defeat static string search. The package presents itself as a base framework typings module and ships an unreferenced lib/telemetry.js plus DISABLE_TELEMETRY/ANALYTICS_OPT_OUT/DO_NOT_TRACK opt-out env vars as cover; the DNS-TXT path carries an inline comment describing it as chunked transfer for environments blocking HTTPS.

Any 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.
