The package declares a preinstall lifecycle script that executes index.js on `npm install`. index.js uses child_process.exec to run a curl command whose URL embeds `$(hostname)` and `$(whoami)` as subdomains of `sgc6vj7rjciuailqx2kfebc7pyvpjk79.oastify.com`, a Burp Collaborator (OAST) host. On install, the installer's hostname and username are transmitted to that attacker-controlled destination via DNS resolution and HTTP. The package name is a random alphanumeric scope with no legitimate functionality; the sole observable behavior is host reconnaissance exfiltration at install time. This is the canonical dependency-confusion / OAST recon payload shape.

Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.
