It downloads a platform-specific native binary via https.get, writes it to /var/tmp/.cache_<rand> on Unix or %TEMP%\\dotnet_diag_<rand>.exe on Windows to disguise the file, chmods it 0755, and spawns it detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd, then unref()s the child so it survives the parent. Cover-story comments ('Shuffle endpoints', 'analytics_state', a DISABLE_TELEMETRY opt-out) frame the dropper as telemetry. The destinations are attacker-controlled workers.dev/DDNS hosts, the delivered content is an opaque compiled binary unrelated to the package's advertised react-query purpose, and execution occurs on plain require() of the module.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (a8f348ed73a431301a15993d486b2f77704652ad5ae5d132405d41f339c893ad)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
