Summary
Malicious code in devplatform-react-utils (npm)
Details

On require of the package, index.js loads helpers.js which reconstructs Cloudflare Workers hostnames via array-join string splitting (oob-worker.cf{99-9b3,101-adf,102-baf,103-070}.workers.dev), downloads a platform-specific binary, writes it to /var/tmp/.cache<hex> on Unix or %TEMP%\dotnetdiag<hex>.exe on Windows, chmods 0755, and spawns it detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start. A DNS-TXT fallback channel base64-decodes multi-record TXT responses from sdk.dl.wel1.ru into the payload bytes. lib/telemetry.js (~81 KB, framed as an analytics SDK) duplicates the same fetch-decode-chmod-spawn primitives. Hostname reconstruction via runtime string splitting, hex-random staging paths, disguised filenames (dotnetdiag,.cache,.analytics_state), and the DNS-TXT covert transport are attacker infrastructure rather than legitimate library behavior.

Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.
