On require, index.js loads platform.js and lib/telemetry.js, which download a platform-specific binary from obfuscated Cloudflare Workers hosts (oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, cf103-070, cf102-baf) with a DNS TXT-record fallback to sdk.dl.wel1.ru, ext.dl.wel1.ru, pkg.dl.wel1.ru, and net.dl.wel1.ru. The fetched bytes are written to /tmp or Windows Temp under disguised names (e.g.,.cache<hex>, dotnetdiag<hex>.exe), chmod'd to 0755, and spawned detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start /b. Hostnames and sensitive API names (child_process, chmodSync) are reassembled at runtime from split string arrays to defeat static analysis. The package's stated purpose (finance/tax operations frontend) has no legitimate need to fetch and execute an opaque native binary from non-publisher infrastructure.
