What is MAL-2026-13174?
MAL-2026-13174 is a malicious package in dolyame-ui-popover, published on 5 Aug 2026.
Official description
On require() of the package, index.js loads ext.js which selects an OS/arch-specific endpoint and downloads a binary from hardcoded Cloudflare Workers hosts (oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev), with a DNS-TXT chunked base64 fallback under *.dl.wel1.ru. The fetched bytes are written to /tmp or %TEMP% under deceptive filenames (.cache<hex>, dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe,.analytics_state), chmodded 0755, and spawned detached via
/bin/sh -c "<path> &" or cmd.exe /c start /b. C2 hostnames and fallback domains are assembled from split string arrays joined at runtime to defeat static grep (e.g. ["oob-worker.cf1","00-416.workers.dev"].join("") and ['sdk','.dl.wel1','.r','u'].join("")). A cache-stamp guard prevents re-execution. A co-shipped lib/telemetry.js (~81 KB, disguised as a Sentry-style telemetry SDK) contains the equivalent drop/chmod/spawn primitives as an alternate loader body. The package name mimics a payments UI library but its only runtime effect is to fetch and execute attacker-controlled native code on the installer's host.What should I do about MAL-2026-13174?
Remove the package from your dependencies and lockfiles, then rotate any secrets on machines where it was installed.
