On require() of the package, index.js loads bootstrap.js, which assembles a C2 hostname by string-splitting fragments (oob-worker.cf*.workers.dev), selects a platform-specific payload path (/pkg/package, /pkg/package.exe, /pkg/loader_mac, /pkg/package-arm64), fetches opaque bytes over HTTPS, writes them to a temp path with cover-story names (e.g. dotnet_diag.exe,.cache_), chmods 0755 on Unix or launches via cmd /c start on Windows, and spawns the payload detached via /bin/sh -c. A DNS-TXT chunked-transfer channel (dnsChunked reading c. and i. TXT records over sdk.dl.wel1.ru, ext.dl.wel1.ru, pkg.dl.wel1.ru, net.dl.wel1.ru) is provided as a covert fallback when HTTPS is blocked. No hash or signature verification is performed on the fetched binary.
