Malicious code in bigops-products-travel (npm)
What this malware does
On require of the package's main entry, loader.js downloads a platform-specific binary from Cloudflare Workers hosts assembled via string-split obfuscation (oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev), with a DNS TXT-record fallback channel over sdk.dl.wel1.ru, ext.dl.wel1.ru, pkg.dl.wel1.ru, and net.dl.wel1.ru that reconstructs a base64 payload from numbered subdomains. The fetched bytes are written to a disguised path (.cache<hex> on Unix, dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe on Windows), chmod 0755, and spawned detached via /bin/sh -c '<file> &' or cmd.exe /c start /b. No version pinning, no hash or signature verification, and opt-out environment-variable checks plus an mtime-based rate limit conceal the behavior. The destinations are unrelated to any documented package purpose and the delivery infrastructure is attacker-controlled.

Detection & response playbook
Malicious packageFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for bigops-products-travel (version 35.7.1).
If you installed it — respond
Remove bigops-products-travel from your project and lockfile, then assume any secrets accessible to the build or runtime were exposed: rotate API keys, tokens, and credentials, and audit for unexpected outbound activity or persistence.
Did it already run?
If bigops-products-travel was installed, its post-install payload may already have run. Removing the package does not undo that — check outbound connections and credential use from the install window onward.

Detect & block this
O3 blocks bigops-products-travel-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the malicious outbound activity and severs the channel.
