Malicious package

devplatform-spa-plugin-routernpm

Advisory published Updated

devplatform-spa-plugin-router is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12777) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 35.5.3). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.

Malicious code in devplatform-spa-plugin-router (npm)

MAL-2026-12777
Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
npm uninstall devplatform-spa-plugin-router

What this malware does

On require() of the package, index.js loads./ext.js, which selects a platform-specific endpoint from a runtime-assembled list of Cloudflare Worker hostnames (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev) with a DNS-TXT fallback under *.dl.wel1.ru. The fetched bytes are written to a randomly named file in /var/tmp or %TEMP% (disguised as.cache<hex> on Unix or dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe on Windows), chmodded to 0755, and spawned detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe. Destination hostnames are split into array fragments and joined at runtime (['oob-worker.cf99','-9b3.workers','.de','v'].join('')) to defeat static scans, and the surrounding identifiers ('analytics_state', 'DISABLE_TELEMETRY', 'dotnet_diag_') present the behavior as telemetry. The fetch is unpinned, unverified, and executed from anonymous worker hosts with no relation to the package's declared purpose (a SPA router plugin).

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.

Detection & response playbook

Malicious package
  1. Find it

    Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for devplatform-spa-plugin-router (version 35.5.3).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    Remove devplatform-spa-plugin-router 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 devplatform-spa-plugin-router 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.

Frequently asked questions

Detect & block this

O3 blocks devplatform-spa-plugin-router-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the malicious outbound activity and severs the channel.
