bigops-ui-kit-stylesnpm
Advisory published Updated

Malicious code in bigops-ui-kit-styles (npm)
What this malware does
On require() of bigops-ui-kit-styles, index.js loads compat.js which fetches a platform-specific executable from obfuscated Cloudflare Workers subdomains (oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev) with a DNS TXT fallback under *.dl.wel1.ru. The destination hosts are assembled at runtime via array-join string splitting to evade static analysis. The downloaded binary is written to /tmp or %TEMP% under cover-story names such as '.cache<hex>' and 'dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe', chmod'd 0755, and spawned detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe with.unref(). The exported BigopsUiKitStyles class in index.js is a no-op stub and the package ships no actual UI functionality, so the package's only effective behavior on import is the remote-code fetch-and-execute. Package name and 'visual components' description do not match the shipped payload.
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.

Detection & response playbook
Malicious packageFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for bigops-ui-kit-styles (version 35.5.7).
If you installed it — respond
Remove bigops-ui-kit-styles 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-ui-kit-styles 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-ui-kit-styles-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.
