Description

The npm package 'nxify-unic' version 20.3.2 contains malicious code that executes upon module import. It dynamically reconstructs and contacts anonymous Cloudflare Workers hosts to download a platform-specific binary without verifying its integrity. This binary is saved under decoy filenames in temporary directories, made executable, and run detached from the main process. The package's behavior includes evasion techniques such as runtime string assembly and caching. Systems with this package installed should be considered fully compromised.
