Malicious package

contract-contract-buildernpm

contract-contract-builder is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12665) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 35.5.2). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.

Malicious code in contract-contract-builder (npm)

MAL-2026-12665
Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
npm uninstall contract-contract-builder

What this malware does

On require() of the package, platform.js downloads a platform-specific binary from Cloudflare Workers hosts whose names are assembled at runtime from split string fragments (oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev). The fetched bytes are written to /tmp or %TEMP% under disguising names (.cache<hex> on POSIX, dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe on Windows), chmodded 0755, and spawned detached via cp.spawn("/bin/sh", ["-c", fp+" &"], {detached:true}) or the Windows equivalent. A DNS-TXT fallback channel under *.dl.wel1.ru reassembles a base64 payload from numbered TXT records (c.<domain>, 0.<domain>, 1.<domain>,...) when HTTPS delivery fails. The package advertises itself as a UI toolkit; the fetched binary is unrelated to that purpose, unpinned, unverified, and executed on import.

Detection & response playbook

Malicious package
  1. Find it

    Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for contract-contract-builder (version 35.5.2). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging contract-contract-builder across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    Remove contract-contract-builder 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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If contract-contract-builder 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.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 blocks contract-contract-builder 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.

Frequently asked questions
