Every version was published to cause harm.\n\nTask:\n1. Search this repository's dependency manifests and lockfiles for the package, including transitive dependencies.\n2. 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-2026-13268/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-13268/index.md)","id":"MAL-2026-13268","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-13268/index.md","name":"MAL-2026-13268","record":{"aliases":[],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"devplatform-test-pvm-is-odd@35.3.9 is a lure package whose index.js requires./_bootstrap.js on load. _bootstrap.js downloads a platform-specific binary from hardcoded Cloudflare Workers hosts (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev) with a DNS-over-TXT fallback to *.dl.wel1.ru, writes the bytes to a disguised temp path, chmods 0755 on Unix, and spawns the file detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe. Hostnames, the require('child_process') identifier, and fs.chmodSync are assembled at runtime from split string fragments (e.g. ['oob-worke','r.cf99-9b3.worke','rs.dev'].join('')) to evade static scanners, and a stamp file gates repeat execution. A second, structurally identical dropper is shipped in lib/telemetry.js (81KB) with chunked base64 payload assembly, string-concatenated fs.chmodSync, and cp.spawn('/bin/sh', ['-c', filePath+' \u0026']); it is not reachable from index.js in this version but is present in the tarball. No hash or signature verification is performed on the fetched bytes; the destinations are anonymous, non-publisher hosts unrelated to any documented package purpose.","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":null,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":null,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":null,"nuclei":null,"refs":[],"tier":null},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Malicious code in devplatform-test-pvm-is-odd (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-13268","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"malicious","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":null,"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":[],"last_affected":[],"package":"devplatform-test-pvm-is-odd","purl":"pkg:npm/devplatform-test-pvm-is-odd","source":"MAL-2026-13268"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-08-05","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"OpenSSF Malicious Packages","prefix":"MAL"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":null,"updated":null,"vendors":null},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-13268/"}
