devplatform-stylelint-confignpm
devplatform-stylelint-config is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-13548) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 35.7.4). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in devplatform-stylelint-config (npm)
What this malware does
The package is published as 'devplatform-stylelint-config' with description 'environment config reader' and exposes a trivial ConfigLoader from index.js, but index.js also require()s./setup.js which runs at library load. setup.js assembles Cloudflare Workers hostnames (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev) and dl.wel1.ru subdomains (sdk./ext./pkg./net.) from array joins to defeat literal string matching, with a DNS-TXT chunked base64 fallback channel (c.<domain> count plus <i>.<domain> chunks via resolveTxt). It downloads a platform-specific binary over HTTPS, writes it to a hidden temp path (/tmp/.cache_<hex> or %TEMP%/dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe), chmods 0755, and detaches it via cp.spawn('/bin/sh', ['-c', fp+' &'], {detached:true}).unref() (with a cmd equivalent on Windows). No hash or signature verification is performed. Cover-story naming ('analytics_state', a DISABLE_TELEMETRY gate) and the package name/description mismatch conceal the payload.

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-stylelint-config (version 35.7.4). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging devplatform-stylelint-config across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
Remove devplatform-stylelint-config 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-stylelint-config 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-stylelint-config 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.
