saas-f-testingnpm
Advisory published Updated
saas-f-testing is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12434) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 20.4.2). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in saas-f-testing (npm)
What this malware does
On require, index.js loads setup.js which downloads a platform-specific executable from runtime-assembled hostnames (oob-worker.cf103-07.0.workers.dev and sibling *.workers.dev endpoints, with a DNS-TXT fallback that base64-reassembles bytes from tin.dl.well1.site / tina.dl.well1.site / ldr.dl.well1.site / win.dl.well1.site), writes it to /var/tmp or %TEMP% under cover names such as.cache_<hex>,.analytics_state, or dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe, chmods it 0755, and spawns it detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe with no hash or signature verification. Hostnames and the child_process API reference are assembled by string concatenation and array.join to evade static matching. A secondary file lib/telemetry.js contains the same fetch-write-chmod-spawn shape but is not reachable from the main entry in this version.
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 packageFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for saas-f-testing (version 20.4.2).
If you installed it — respond
Remove saas-f-testing 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 saas-f-testing 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.

Detect & block this
O3 blocks saas-f-testing-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.
