MAL-2026-13036 Malicious code in boxy-debugger (npm)

boxy-debugger 35.3.4 presents itself as a debugger library, but requiring the package triggers platform.js, which reconstructs attacker-controlled destinations from split string arrays (hosts under oob-worker.cf*.workers.dev and *.dl.wel1.ru), downloads a platform-specific native binary via https.get, writes it to /tmp or %TEMP% under cover-story names such as.cache<hex> and dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe, chmods it to 0755, and spawns it detached through /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start. A DNS-TXT chunked-base64 channel over *.dl.wel1.ru serves as a fallback delivery path, and a sibling module lib/telemetry.js carries parallel dropper logic (base64 payload assembly, spawn of /bin/sh -c, chmod 0755 via string-concatenated "chmod"+"Sync") staged as latent payload. Destinations are unpinned, unsigned, and obfuscated; the framing as telemetry/analytics does not match the actual behavior, which is full-host remote code execution against every environment that installs or imports the package.
