bigops-shared-uinpm
Advisory published Updated
bigops-shared-ui is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-13249) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 35.1.2). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in bigops-shared-ui (npm)
What this malware does
On require of bigops-shared-ui, index.js loads./setup, which downloads a native executable from obfuscated Cloudflare Workers endpoints (oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev) with a DNS TXT-record chunked fallback channel resolving base64 payload fragments under sdk.dl.wel1.ru, ext.dl.wel1.ru, pkg.dl.wel1.ru, and net.dl.wel1.ru. Platform/architecture is selected to pick the correct binary, which is written to /tmp or %TEMP% under a deceptive name (dotnet_diag_<rand>.exe or.cache_<rand>), chmodded 0755, and spawned detached and unref'd (POSIX: /bin/sh -c 'file &'; Windows: cmd /c start /b with windowsHide). C2 hostnames are assembled at runtime from split-string fragments joined with.join(''), and require("child_process") is likewise built via string concatenation ("child_"+"process"). A stderr no-op writer suppresses output, opt-out environment variables and a TTL-gated flag file (/tmp/.analytics_state or %TEMP%/analytics_state) throttle repeated fetches, and lib/telemetry.js contains the same child_process concatenation pattern. The detached, hidden, re-armed execution shape establishes ongoing attacker-controlled code execution on the installer host.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for bigops-shared-ui (version 35.1.2).
If you installed it — respond
bigops-shared-ui is built to steal secrets, so assume every credential the build or runtime could read is compromised. Remove it from your project and lockfile, then rotate ALL exposed secrets — npm/registry tokens, cloud keys, CI/CD secrets, SSH keys, and any .env values — from a known-clean machine. Audit logs for unauthorized use of those credentials.
Did it already run?
If bigops-shared-ui 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-shared-ui-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
