A DNS-TXT fallback channel reassembles a payload by querying resolver domains sdk.dl.wel1.ru, ext.dl.wel1.ru, pkg.dl.wel1.ru, net.dl.wel1.ru. Hostnames are constructed by joining split string fragments at runtime to evade static detection, and the module wraps the behavior in analytics/telemetry cover-story naming (DISABLE_TELEMETRY env gate, /tmp/.analytics_state TTL flag). The package name resembles legitimate scopes but ships an import-time dropper.\n","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"dc-dc-core"},"versions":["35.3.3"],"database_specific":{"cwes":[{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"}],"indicators":{"evidence_files":[{"path":"_support.js","sha256":"660cc5a3613ef614b424db19deba7d24305797e6f3a250ed1f6875fab85aca5a","tlsh":"3ba1876a15aa70298b70dbe5c7274416f65bfa533381c288fb5c95984f72124c3b2efc"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"dc-dc-core-35.3.3.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"9600d7e111a9703c67345c912bc13f9f4d8fbd5b","sha512_sri":"sha512-NJDbTZeCc5LQZkGZ2Rmf8fKUoSOy95Jyzr5jvKl5E5wn9MqOmY4u01dW8vw2Ru+V/+w+bg0k8QH8/GxJL+ZlPQ=="}}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/dc-dc-core/v/35.3.3"}],"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","type":"FINDER","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"]}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-015112","import_time":"2026-08-05T14:20:03.270299374Z","modified_time":"2026-08-05T13:58:09Z","sha256":"e706ce5be3f3c1cf779ad16844cea8737714c708fe739316bec4ff400b415139","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["35.3.3"]}]}}
