What this malware does

[email protected] is a typosquat/lookalike of the zod ecosystem that acts as an import-time dropper. index.js unconditionally requires./vendor on load; vendor.js runs at module load, reassembles a C2 hostname from split string fragments (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev) with a DNS-TXT-record fallback to sdk.dl.wel1.ru, fetches a platform-specific native binary over HTTPS, writes it to /var/tmp/.cache<uid> on Unix or %TEMP%\dotnet_diag<uid>.exe on Windows, chmods it 0755, and detached-spawns it via /bin/sh -c "<path> &" or cmd start /b. There is no signature or hash verification of the fetched bytes. A marker file at.analytics_state/analytics_state gates re-execution to roughly a 6-hour interval. A second parallel dropper implementation is shipped in lib/telemetry.js (assembles base64 chunks over DNS TXT, writes an 'extension' file, chmods 755, spawns /bin/sh). Hostname reassembly via.join(''), split-string obfuscation of DNS resolvers, and hidden filenames masquerading as OS cache/diagnostics files (.cache_, dotnet_diag_) indicate deliberate evasion rather than telemetry. On any require() of this package, arbitrary attacker-controlled native code executes on the installer's host.

Detection & response playbook

Backdoor / remote access
  1. Find it

    Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for devplatform-zod-wip-api (version 35.9.3). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging devplatform-zod-wip-api across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    devplatform-zod-wip-api establishes remote access, so treat any host that installed it as fully compromised. Isolate the machine, remove the package, rotate all credentials it could reach, and rebuild from a trusted image rather than cleaning in place — a backdoor may have planted additional persistence.

  3. Did it already run?

    If devplatform-zod-wip-api 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-zod-wip-api 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.

Frequently asked questions
