devplatform-spa-plugin-s3-module-loadernpm
devplatform-spa-plugin-s3-module-loader is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12779) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 35.8.2). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in devplatform-spa-plugin-s3-module-loader (npm)
What this malware does
On require of the package's main entry, index.js loads adapter.js, which selects a platform-specific payload URL, fetches opaque bytes from one of three obfuscated Cloudflare Workers hosts (oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev) assembled from split string arrays, writes them to a hidden temp path (dot-file on Unix, dotnet_diag*.exe on Windows), chmods 0755 on Unix, and spawns the file detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start. A DNS-over-TXT fallback resolves c.<domain>/i.<domain> under sdk.dl.wel1.ru, ext.dl.wel1.ru, pkg.dl.wel1.ru, and net.dl.wel1.ru and base64-reassembles a payload from numbered TXT records when HTTPS delivery is blocked. Destinations, delivery channels, and payloads are fully author-controlled, obfuscated via runtime string reassembly, and unrelated to the package's advertised S3-module-loader purpose. Cover-story identifiers include analytics_state and DISABLE_TELEMETRY.

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 devplatform-spa-plugin-s3-module-loader (version 35.8.2). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging devplatform-spa-plugin-s3-module-loader across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
Remove devplatform-spa-plugin-s3-module-loader 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 devplatform-spa-plugin-s3-module-loader 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 devplatform-spa-plugin-s3-module-loader 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.
