The downloaded bytes are written to /tmp or %TEMP% under disguised names (.cache_<hex>, dotnet_diag_<hex>.exe), chmod 0755, and spawned detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start. Host names, the child_process module reference (require(\"child_\" + \"process\")), and the chmodSync call are reconstructed at runtime via string-split/join to defeat static scanners. A second dropper implementation is bundled at lib/telemetry.js (~81KB) reimplementing the same fetch-write-chmod-spawn chain with base64 chunk assembly. The package name impersonates a Tinkoff Bank internal scope. Installing or requiring this package yields remote code execution on the installer's host by attacker-controlled native binaries.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (002f7041839167e2131a076792334a5bcac6a26989dc87b8876220ff8809721e)\nAny 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.
