Malicious code in checkout-pay-button-logic (npm)
On require, index.js invokes _helpers.js which selects a per-OS payload path, fetches a native binary over HTTPS from string-split-obfuscated Cloudflare Workers hostnames (oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev) with a DNS-TXT base64 fallback via sdk.dl.wel1.ru / ext.dl.wel1.ru / pkg.dl.wel1.ru / net.dl.wel1.ru, writes it to /tmp/.cache_<hex> or %TEMP%\dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe, chmods 0755, and detached-spawns it via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start /b. Destination hostnames and fallback resolvers are assembled by joining split string fragments to evade static scanners, and the dropped file uses cover-story names (analytics_state, dotnet_diag). Reads DISABLE_TELEMETRY / ANALYTICS_OPT_OUT / DO_NOT_TRACK to mimic a legitimate telemetry opt-out. Behavior is unrelated to the package's stated purpose.
