Summary
On require() of the package, index.js unconditionally loads _runtime.js, which fetches an OS-specific binary from attacker-controlled hosts under oob-worker.cf1{00-03}-*.workers.dev (with a DNS TXT chunked-base64 fallback via *.dl.wel1.ru), writes it to /tmp or %TEMP% under a hidden/system-lookalike name, chmods it 0755, and spawns it detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd /c start. Destination hostnames are assembled at runtime from split string arrays (e.g. ["oob-worker.cf100-416.wor","ker","s.de","v"].join("") and ['sdk.dl.wel','1.ru'].join("")) to defeat static matching, and environment gates (DISABLE_TELEMETRY, DO_NOT_TRACK, globalThis.__ANALYTICS_SKIP) plus a /tmp/.analytics_state mtime dedup stamp cloak the behavior. The exported BoxyDevtools class is a no-op stub; the sole runtime effect on import is invoking the dropper. Package name and metadata are consistent with a typosquat/impersonation shell around the payload.
