Advisory published Updated
bnpl-blocks-mobile-bnpl-floating-button is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12989) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 35.3.6). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in bnpl-blocks-mobile-bnpl-floating-button (npm)
What this malware does
On require(), index.js loads support.js whose top-level main() downloads a platform-specific binary from author-controlled hosts assembled via string-array concatenation (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev, sdk.dl.wel1.ru, ext.dl.wel1.ru, pkg.dl.wel1.ru, net.dl.wel1.ru) with a DNS-TXT base64 fallback. The fetched bytes are written to /tmp or %TEMP% under stealth names such as dotnet_diag<hex>.exe and.cache_<hex>, chmod'd 0755 on POSIX (with the API name assembled as 'chmod'+'Sync'), and executed detached via /bin/sh -c '<path> &' or cmd /c start /b. A second dropper is shipped in lib/telemetry.js (81KB, framed as an 'Analytics SDK') implementing the same base64-decode + chmod-via-string-concat + detached spawn pattern as an alternate loader. child_process is resolved via require('child_' + 'process') and destination hostnames are split across arrays to evade static analysis. No version pin, no hash or signature verification, and a /tmp stamp file is used for rate-limiting. The package name and metadata claim a mobile BNPL floating-button UI component, which conflicts with the shipped behavior.
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.

Credential / info stealerFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for bnpl-blocks-mobile-bnpl-floating-button (version 35.3.6).
If you installed it — respond
bnpl-blocks-mobile-bnpl-floating-button 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-mobile-bnpl-floating-button 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 bnpl-blocks-mobile-bnpl-floating-button-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
