If HTTPS retrieval fails, a covert DNS-TXT channel is used: a chunk-count TXT record at c.<domain> and base64-encoded payload chunks at <i>.<domain> are fetched and reassembled into the executable. No hash or signature verification is performed on the fetched binary. Destination hostnames are constructed from split arrays such as [\"oob-worker\",\".cf103-070.\",\"workers.\",\"de\",\"v\"].join(\"\") to evade static string scanning. The package is presented as a benign runtime support module; the delivered binary is opaque and the destinations are attacker-controlled.\n","affected":[{"package":{"name":"claims-get-indexed-selector","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/claims-get-indexed-selector"},"versions":["35.8.7"],"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":"_polyfill.js","sha256":"7c823ab3268fe994e0fdf7e7d0be9883b0bd75fce706abcaddd1e540ad730f1d","tlsh":"20b1a75a116670198bb0e7e4c717581af66af6637380c6d8fb5c55880f7712883b2efc"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"claims-get-indexed-selector-35.8.7.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"4edcb830138a61fa4e318c8ac56cb1aa6308d0f9","sha512_sri":"sha512-Ugwqk/DCrstfk9vKlzvFlH6E/8g2JEveNyNLOlBTbli2Yr3nfXSUy4I3knsL9nfGrW9u4Vg/maSO1r8k6HhnCA=="}}]},"source":"https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages/blob/main/osv/malicious/npm/claims-get-indexed-selector/MAL-2026-12621.json"}}],"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/claims-get-indexed-selector/v/35.8.7"}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-015163","import_time":"2026-08-05T14:20:08.457516187Z","modified_time":"2026-08-05T14:06:00Z","sha256":"fe924c35590524d1632020cce8e08d68b232aa0d53b0f0ecb730f3ae87e07c35","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["35.8.7"]}]},"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
