The package's postinstall hook executes index.js, which sweeps installer-owned secrets from the home directory (.npmrc,.yarnrc,.gitconfig,.git-credentials, ~/.ssh/* private keys, ~/.aws/credentials and SSO cache, GCP application_default_credentials, Azure tokens, kubeconfig, Docker config, Terraform credentials, GitHub CLI hosts, Heroku.netrc, Vercel/Netlify/Supabase/Firebase tokens, VSCode settings, PyPI/gem/cargo credentials) and enumerates process.env for values matching TOKEN/KEY/SECRET/PASSWORD patterns, including AI provider API keys. The collected data — together with hostname, username, platform, architecture, cwd and Node version — is base64-encoded and transmitted over HTTPS to api.telegram.org/bot/sendMessage (chat_id 8607833954) and over HTTP to 2.26.82.63:8888/collect. Execution is gated to early-return when NODE_ENV=test, CI=true, JEST_WORKER_ID or VITEST are set, or /.dockerenv exists, and is delayed by a randomized 5–15 second sleep to evade sandbox and CI observation. The package name and 999.0.1 version are consistent with a dependency-confusion lure targeting an internal package.
