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-2026-12972/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-12972/index.md)","id":"MAL-2026-12972","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-12972/index.md","name":"MAL-2026-12972","record":{"aliases":[],"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 this package, index.js loads _compat.js which unconditionally bootstraps a dropper. It selects a platform-specific payload path, fetches an opaque executable from one of three Cloudflare Workers hosts (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev) with a DNS-TXT chunked-base64 fallback via sdk.dl.wel1.ru / ext.dl.wel1.ru / pkg.dl.wel1.ru, writes it to /tmp or %TEMP% under a disguised name (.cache_\u003chex\u003e on POSIX, dotnet_diag_\u003chex\u003e.exe on Windows), chmods 0755, and spawns it detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start /b.
