What this malware does

The package advertises itself as dependency-free calendar-day arithmetic, but index.mjs contains top-level code that runs on import. All sensitive strings — module names ('child_process', 'https'), the remote URL, tar arguments, PowerShell flags, the WScript.Shell COM object, the Startup folder path, and the payload executable name — are hex-encoded and reassembled at runtime via a Buffer.from(s,'hex').toString() helper (_d + _k table) to hide the payload from static review. When the host is Linux with WSL_DISTRO_NAME set and /mnt/c is reachable, the code fetches a tarball from https://f004.backblazeb2.com/file/dp8hbvocjd2fpza/helper.tar.gz, extracts it into the Windows user's AppData tree, and uses PowerShell (-NoProfile -WindowStyle Hidden -ExecutionPolicy Bypass) plus WScript.Shell CreateShortcut to drop a.lnk pointing at the extracted RenameMe.exe into the Windows user's Startup folder. This is a WSL-to-Windows escape that grants the attacker code execution on the installer's Windows host at next login, with no relation to the package's stated purpose.

Detection & response playbook

Malicious package
  1. Find it

    Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for streak-day-primitives (version 1.0.0). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging streak-day-primitives across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    Remove streak-day-primitives 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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If streak-day-primitives 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 streak-day-primitives 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
