When HTTPS fetch fails, setup.js falls back to a DNS TXT-record channel under *.dl.well1.site (tin.dl.well1.site, tina.dl.well1.site, ldr.dl.well1.site, win.dl.well1.site): it queries a count record and then N chunk records, base64-decodes the concatenation, and executes the reconstructed payload — an evasion channel that bypasses HTTP egress filtering. The child_process module name and destination hostnames are runtime-assembled from split arrays to defeat static scanners; disguised filenames and an analytics/telemetry framing serve as cover. The fetch-and-execute path fires automatically whenever any consumer requires this package.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (951066f8fd3f0cc78122046780b65659e2e22d1aa548afaeb26b8a8ca5bad739)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
