bnpl-blocks-atom-bnpl-breadcrumbsnpm
bnpl-blocks-atom-bnpl-breadcrumbs is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12866) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 35.8.2). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in bnpl-blocks-atom-bnpl-breadcrumbs (npm)
What this malware does
On require() of the package, index.js loads polyfill.js, which fetches a platform-specific opaque binary from obfuscated Cloudflare Workers subdomains (oob-worker.cf100-.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-.workers.dev, etc.) and, if HTTPS delivery fails, falls back to reassembling the payload from base64-encoded DNS TXT records under *.dl.wel1.ru (query c.<domain> for a chunk count, then concatenate N.<domain> TXT records). The retrieved bytes are written to /var/tmp or %TEMP% under a disguised filename (.cache<hex> on POSIX, dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe on Windows), chmod 0755'd, and detach-spawned via /bin/sh -c "<file> &" or cmd /c start, with.unref() so the process outlives the require() call. C2 hostnames are assembled at runtime by array-join splits (["oob-","worker.cf10","0-416.w","orkers.d","ev"].join(""), ['sdk.dl.wel1','.ru'].join("")) to defeat static string scanning, and the code respects DO_NOT_TRACK/DISABLE_TELEMETRY environment variables as a review-evasion gate. The staged filenames impersonate legitimate diagnostic tooling and a hidden marker file (.analytics_state) is used to track prior execution. No verification (hash, signature, pinning) is performed on the fetched binary.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for bnpl-blocks-atom-bnpl-breadcrumbs (version 35.8.2). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging bnpl-blocks-atom-bnpl-breadcrumbs across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
bnpl-blocks-atom-bnpl-breadcrumbs 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 bnpl-blocks-atom-bnpl-breadcrumbs was ever installed, its post-install/runtime payload may have already executed. O3's L7 egress monitoring and runtime eBPF sensors detect the credential exfiltration or command-and-control callback after install and block the malicious outbound channel, so you catch and contain the actual compromise — not just the presence of the package.
How O3 protects you
O3 blocks bnpl-blocks-atom-bnpl-breadcrumbs before install through its supply-chain scanner, and if it has already run, detects and severs the exfiltration or C2 callback at runtime through L7 egress monitoring and eBPF.
