devplatform-ui-notificationnpm
devplatform-ui-notification is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-13270) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 35.3.6). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in devplatform-ui-notification (npm)
What this malware does
index.js unconditionally requires./compat on load, which selects a platform-specific asset path (linux/darwin/win32) and downloads bytes over HTTPS from string-obfuscated Cloudflare Workers hosts (oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev) with a DNS-TXT base64 fallback channel under *.dl.wel1.ru. The downloaded payload is written to /var/tmp (or the Windows TEMP directory) under a disguised name resembling dotnet_diag.exe /.cache_, chmodded to 0755, and spawned detached via /bin/sh -c '<file> &' or cmd /c start with stdio ignored. Destination hosts are assembled from split string fragments (e.g. ["oob-worker.cf","103-070",".worker","s.","de","v"].join("")) and child_process / chmodSync are required via string concatenation (require("child_" + "process"), fs["chmod" + "Sync"]) to evade static URL and API scanning. The same download-then-execute chain is duplicated in lib/telemetry.js (81KB). There is no version pinning, no hash or signature verification, and the destinations are unrelated to a UI notification library.

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-ui-notification (version 35.3.6). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging devplatform-ui-notification across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
Remove devplatform-ui-notification 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-ui-notification 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-ui-notification 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.
