delivery-ci-dpatnpm
Advisory published Updated
delivery-ci-dpat is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-13500) that opens a backdoor for remote access (malicious version 35.1.5). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in delivery-ci-dpat (npm)
What this malware does
On require() of delivery-ci-dpat, _platform.js runs setup() at module load: it fetches a platform-specific binary over HTTPS from hardcoded Cloudflare Workers hosts (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev), writes it to a hidden path under /tmp or %TEMP%, chmods it 0o755, and spawns it detached via /bin/sh -c '<file> &' or cmd.exe /c start /b. A DNS-TXT covert channel provides a fallback delivery path: dnsChunked() queries c.<domain> under *.dl.wel1.ru for a chunk count, iterates 0..N.<domain> collecting base64-encoded TXT records, reassembles them into a binary buffer, and executes the reconstructed payload the same way. The C2 hostnames and DNS fallback domain are assembled at runtime from split-string fragments (['oob-worker.cf101-adf.worker','s.','dev'].join(''); ['sdk.dl.wel','1.r','u'].join('')) to evade static matching. A filesystem stamp is used for run-once dedup and the behavior is labeled as analytics/telemetry.

Detection & response playbook
Backdoor / remote accessFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for delivery-ci-dpat (version 35.1.5).
If you installed it — respond
delivery-ci-dpat establishes remote access, so treat any host that installed it as fully compromised. Isolate the machine, remove the package, rotate all credentials it could reach, and rebuild from a trusted image rather than cleaning in place — a backdoor may have planted additional persistence.
Did it already run?
If delivery-ci-dpat 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 delivery-ci-dpat-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the C2 callback and severs the channel.
