Malicious package. Executes hidden script during install to exfiltrate local IP, hostname, and homedir to an OAST server.
The package includes a preinstall
script that executes node test.js
and redirects all output to /dev/null
, hiding its execution. The test.js
script exfiltrates sensitive information like local IP, hostname, and home directory to an OAST server (oastify.com
) using DNS queries. This combination of a hidden preinstall script and data exfiltration strongly suggests malicious intent.
