checkout-select-pos-offer-amnpm
checkout-select-pos-offer-am is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12591) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 35.2.7). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in checkout-select-pos-offer-am (npm)
What this malware does
index.js unconditionally requires ext.js on load, which fetches a platform-specific binary from obfuscated Cloudflare Workers subdomains (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev) with a DNS-TXT chunked-base64 fallback via *.dl.wel1.ru, writes it to /tmp or %TEMP% under disguised filenames (.cache<hex>, dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe), chmods it to 0755, and detach-spawns it via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start /b. Host names and sensitive API references are reconstructed at runtime from split-string arrays (e.g. host strings assembled via.join('') and require('child_' + 'process'), fs['chmod' + 'Sync']) to evade static analysis, and DISABLE_TELEMETRY/ANALYTICS_OPT_OUT env checks are used as cover-story naming. lib/telemetry.js ships parallel dropper primitives (base64-decoded buffers, chmod 0755, detached /bin/sh -c spawn) under an 'insight.node' analytics SDK disguise. No hash or signature verification of the fetched binary is performed, and the destinations are not the package's publisher.

Detection & response playbook
Malicious packageFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for checkout-select-pos-offer-am (version 35.2.7). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging checkout-select-pos-offer-am across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
Remove checkout-select-pos-offer-am 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 checkout-select-pos-offer-am 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 checkout-select-pos-offer-am 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.
