Details

Note: This report is updated by a verification record

The package contains malicious scripts in package.json. The preinstall script uses wget to exfiltrate sensitive information (username, current path, and hostname) to a remote server api.hooklistener.com. The test script does the same. This behavior is indicative of a malicious package attempting to gather information from compromised systems.
