devplatform-jscodeshift-transforms is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12718) that typosquats a legitimate package to trick installs (malicious version 35.9.5). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.

What this malware does

On require() of the package, index.js loads shim.js which downloads a platform-specific binary from obfuscated Cloudflare Workers hosts (destinations reconstructed via string-split concatenation such as ["oob-worker.cf102-b","af.workers.","de","v"].join("")), writes it to /var/tmp or %TEMP% under disguised names like dotnet_diag.exe or.cache_, chmods it 0755, and spawns it detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start. When HTTPS retrieval fails, shim.js falls back to a DNS-TXT covert channel: it resolves TXT records on numbered subdomains under sdk.dl.wel1.ru, ext.dl.wel1.ru, pkg.dl.wel1.ru, and net.dl.wel1.ru and base64-reassembles the responses into the executable buffer. API names (require("child" + "process"), fs["chmod" + "Sync"]) are likewise split to evade static analysis, and env-var checks (DISABLE_TELEMETRY, ANALYTICS_OPT_OUT, DO_NOT_TRACK) plus cover-story identifiers (analytics_state, telemetry.js) frame the loader as benign analytics. The package name mimics an internal jscodeshift transforms wrapper.

Detection & response playbook

Typosquat
  1. Find it

    Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for devplatform-jscodeshift-transforms (version 35.9.5). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging devplatform-jscodeshift-transforms across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    devplatform-jscodeshift-transforms is a typosquat — you almost certainly intended a legitimately-named package. Remove devplatform-jscodeshift-transforms, install the correct package, and rotate any secrets exposed during the install since post-install scripts may have already run.

  3. Did it already run?

    If devplatform-jscodeshift-transforms 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 devplatform-jscodeshift-transforms 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.
