What is MAL-2026-12694?
MAL-2026-12694 is a malicious package in devplatform-api-v2-endpoint, published on 5 Aug 2026.
Official description
On require(), index.js loads./vendor, whose top-level init() fetches a platform-specific native binary from runtime-assembled Cloudflare Workers hosts (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev), with a fallback that reassembles a base64-encoded binary from DNS TXT records under sdk.dl.wel1.ru / ext.dl.wel1.ru / pkg.dl.wel1.ru / net.dl.wel1.ru. The retrieved bytes are written to /var/tmp or %TEMP% under cover-story names such as.cache<rand> and dotnet_diag_<rand>.exe, chmod 0755, and detached-spawned via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start /b. C2 hostnames are constructed by joining split string fragments to evade static scanners, and the package labels the activity as 'analytics'/'telemetry'. The result is arbitrary attacker-controlled code execution on the installer's host on every import of the package.
What should I do about MAL-2026-12694?
Remove the package from your dependencies and lockfiles, then rotate any secrets on machines where it was installed.
