If it is present, remove it, regenerate the lockfile with the project's package manager, and replace whatever it was used for.\n3. List any CI runners, developer machines or containers that installed it, so their secrets can be rotated.\n4. If the package is not used anywhere, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-12232/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-12232/index.md)","id":"MAL-2026-12232","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-12232/index.md","name":"MAL-2026-12232","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-m4w6-4923-8gc3"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"On require of the package, index.js loads _runtime.js which selects a platform-specific payload path, fetches an opaque native binary from string-split-obfuscated Cloudflare Workers hosts (oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, cf101-adf, cf99-9b3, cf103-070.workers.dev) with a DNS-TXT chunked base64 fallback across hosts assembled from fragments (tin.dl.well1.site, tina.dl.well1.site, ldr.dl.well1.site, win.dl.well1.site).

Hostnames are reconstructed at runtime via Array.join to hide them from static inspection, and a silent stderr no-op is used to suppress logging.
