## What is MAL-2026-13120?

MAL-2026-13120 is a malicious package in bpm-foundation-tcs-configs, published on 5 Aug 2026. 

### Official description

On require() of the package, index.js loads _adapter.js which downloads a platform-specific executable from obfuscated Cloudflare Workers hosts (oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev) and *.dl.wel1.ru, writes it to /tmp or %TEMP% under disguised names (.cache_<hex>,.analytics_state, dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe), chmods it 0755, and spawns it detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe start /b. Destination hostnames are reconstructed at runtime by splitting the domain into fragments and joining them with.join('') to defeat static URL scanners, and code comments falsely label the behavior as telemetry/CDN negotiation. A DNS-over-TXT fallback channel reassembles a base64 payload from numbered TXT records when HTTP fetch fails. There is no version pin or hash verification on the downloaded binary, a TTL cache suppresses repeat downloads to reduce detection, and DISABLE_TELEMETRY-style environment variables act as an evasion switch. The dropped filenames impersonate system components (dotnet diagnostics, analytics cache).

## What should I do about MAL-2026-13120?

Remove the package from your dependencies and lockfiles, then rotate any secrets on machines where it was installed.
