    Summary: Malicious code in statist-browser-typed-client-nfs.grocery.mobile.events (npm)

    Details: Source: amazon-inspector (8fcb1561dd1153104da17218a74c318e8d497b4df1429bbbda8cda0144bd06ce) On require() of the package's main entry, index.js transitively loads _platform.js, which selects a platform-specific payload URL, fetches opaque executable bytes from one of three anonymous Cloudflare Workers hosts (oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev), falls back to a base64-chunked DNS TXT covert channel under *.dl.well1.site (tin/tina/ldr/win subdomains), writes the bytes to /var/tmp or %TEMP% under disguised names (.cache_<rand>, dotnet_diag_<rand>.exe), sets 0755 permissions, and detach-spawns them via cp.spawn("/bin/sh", ["-c", fp+" &"], {detached:true}) or the Windows cmd equivalent. Destination hostnames and DNS domains are assembled at runtime from split string fragments (e.g. ["oob-w","orker.cf102-","baf.workers.de","v"].join(""), ["ldr.dl.w","el","l1.si","te"].join("")) to evade static analysis; the module also silences its own stderr via a no-op logger. Marker files (.analytics_state) and telemetry-style opt-out env vars (DISABLE_TELEMETRY, ANALYTICS_OPT_OUT, DO_NOT_TRACK) are cover-story labeling — the actual behavior is unconditional dropper execution. A sibling module lib/telemetry.js (81 KB, not on the require graph from index.js) ships duplicate drop-and-exec primitives with concatenation-obfuscated API names (require("child_"+"process"), fs["chmod"+"Sync"](...)), staged for later invocation. The package name mimics an internal-scoped path (statist-browser-typed-client-nfs.grocery.mobile.events) consistent with a typosquat/dependency-confusion lure. Source: ghsa-malware (6db1e3dcb7f01a932685b9de318f50cbe975925b8190adb407859bd178065bbe) 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.
