If this package is installed
Remove it, treat the machine (or CI runner) as compromised, and rotate every secret, token and key it could access — from a different, clean machine.

The npm package ach-detail@99.0.1 ships a preinstall lifecycle script (scripts/preinstall.js) that runs automatically on `npm install`. The script collects the installer's hostname, package name and version, Node.js version, platform, timestamp, and a nonce, and POSTs the payload to a hardcoded remote endpoint at https://callback.kuldeep.io/beacon, with an HTTP fallback to the same host. The package is published to the public npm registry at version 99.0.1 — a version-inflation pattern consistent with dependency-confusion targeting of a private internal package of the same name. A log string in the script self-labels the behavior as an authorized bug-bounty PoC, but that label is author-controlled, does not change the observable behavior, and does not represent consent from any installer that resolves the package (accidentally or through dependency-confusion). Installer-side host identifiers leave the machine to a non-first-party endpoint on install.
