Description
The npm package 'dippy-invertor' version 35.1.6 contains malicious code that, upon being required, downloads and executes an OS-specific binary from hardcoded Cloudflare Workers hosts or, if that fails, via a DNS-TXT covert channel. The payload is saved under disguised filenames in temporary directories and executed detached from the main process. The package does not have any legitimate functionality that justifies fetching and running remote binaries at load time.
