package.json declares a postinstall script that runs a shell pipeline collecting host identifiers (uname, id), routing and ARP tables, TCP-probe results against internal hosts, cloud instance metadata from 169.254.169.254, and PID 1 cmdline, then POSTs the aggregated output over plain HTTP to safjhdvsfwzhieemkdzbgr54r0yjhrmok.oast.fun/escinfo10 (an interact.sh OAST callback host). A sibling postinstall.js enumerates ~/.ssh and POSTs a JSON payload including username, platform, and.pub filenames to the hardcoded IP 124.221.154.135:443/post. Both behaviors fire as install-time side effects and provide the publisher with reconnaissance data and cloud-credential-adjacent metadata from any host that runs npm install on this package.
