Description

Malicious code in ded-pwa-c-boxy (npm)

Source: amazon-inspector

On require() of the package, index.js loads _vendor.js, which reconstructs C2 hostnames from split-string arrays (oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev and sdk.dl.wel1.ru, with a DNS-TXT covert-channel fallback), fetches a platform-specific opaque binary over HTTPS, writes it to /var/tmp or %TEMP% under names disguised as system caches (.cache_<hex> / dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe), chmods it 0755, and spawns it detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start /b. The loader is invoked from index.js inside a try/catch that swallows all errors, gated on env variables DISABLE_TELEMETRY / ANALYTICS_OPT_OUT / DO_NOT_TRACK and a filesystem TTL marker to evade repeated analysis. The package.json declares the package as 'Reusable ded pwa c boxy components' with no dependencies and index.js exposes only a trivial DedPwaCBoxy class — the declared purpose is unrelated to any native-binary component. Destinations are anonymous Cloudflare Workers subdomains and a lookalike DNS namespace, not a publisher-owned or documented distribution host.
