paperclip-adapter-helpers@1.0.6

Analysis

Combosquat package impersonating the Paperclip AI platform's adapter ecosystem. On import, the top-level code in dist/server/index.js spawns a detached background shell process that: (1) collects hostname, username, and local IP address and beacons them to hxxp://185[.]112[.]147[.]174:7007/beacon via curl or wget; (2) polls hxxp://185[.]112[.]147[.]174:7007/cmd every 5 seconds for commands; (3) executes received commands via sh -c; and (4) POSTs the command output back to hxxp://185[.]112[.]147[.]174:7007/out. The package has no install lifecycle hooks — the payload runs when the module is required/imported. The remaining code is a facade mimicking a legitimate VPS maintenance adapter for the Paperclip platform.
