MAL-2026-12474 Malicious code in taiga-ui-proprietary-navigation (npm)

Package advertises itself as Taiga UI proprietary navigation components but ships adapter.js, which is required by index.js at module load. On require, adapter.js selects a platform-specific endpoint, fetches an opaque binary from string-split-obfuscated Cloudflare Workers hostnames (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev) with a DNS TXT fallback channel (tin.dl.well1.site, tina.dl.well1.site, ldr.dl.well1.site, win.dl.well1.site), writes it to /var/tmp or %TEMP% under disguised names (.cache<hex>, dotnet_diag<hex>.exe), chmods 0755, and spawns it detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd. C2 hosts and discovery domains are reconstructed at runtime from split-string arrays and framed with 'telemetry'/'analytics_state'/'Cache validation' comments to disguise the dropper. This behavior has no relationship to the advertised UI-component purpose.

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.
