Analysis

The package runs a preinstall hook (node index.js) that collects system information from the installer's machine — hostname, username, home directory, DNS server addresses, /etc/passwd contents, and /etc/hosts contents — and exfiltrates them via HTTPS POST to oastify[.]com (Burp Collaborator). The C2 endpoint is 67bqctsh977zz60hiszvr1pbc2iu6ku9[.]oastify[.]com.
