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-2026-12548/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-12548/index.md)","id":"MAL-2026-12548","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-12548/index.md","name":"MAL-2026-12548","record":{"aliases":[],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"checkout-commit-pos-order-am@35.8.4 executes a dropper on module load. Its main entry `index.js` requires `_shim.js`, which selects a platform-specific asset path and downloads an opaque native binary over HTTPS from hardcoded `oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev`, `oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev`, and `oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev` hosts, with a DNS TXT-record fallback that reassembles base64 chunks from `sdk.dl.wel1.ru`, `ext.dl.wel1.ru`, `pkg.dl.wel1.ru`, and `net.dl.wel1.ru`. Destination hostnames and the `child_process` require are built at runtime by joining fragmented substrings to evade static scanners. The downloaded bytes are written to `/var/tmp/.cache_\u003chex\u003e` on Unix or `%TEMP%\\dotnet_diag_\u003chex\u003e.exe` on Windows (disguised filenames), chmod 0755, and spawned detached via `/bin/sh -c \"\u003cpath\u003e \u0026\"` or `cmd.exe /c start /b`. A parallel dropper with the same download-chmod-spawn shape is bundled as `lib/telemetry.js` (~81KB) under an analytics-SDK cover story and is not currently wired from the entry points but ships in the tarball.","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":null,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":null,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":null,"nuclei":null,"refs":[],"tier":null},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Malicious code in checkout-commit-pos-order-am (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-12548","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"malicious","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":null,"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":[],"last_affected":[],"package":"checkout-commit-pos-order-am","purl":"pkg:npm/checkout-commit-pos-order-am","source":"MAL-2026-12548"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-08-05","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"OpenSSF Malicious Packages","prefix":"MAL"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":null,"updated":null,"vendors":null},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-12548/"}
