Analysis

The preinstall hook (node index.js) collects system information — hostname, home directory, username, DNS servers, /etc/passwd, and /etc/hosts — from the installer's machine and exfiltrates it via HTTPS POST to slh4v8u1tz6gjo447tgf9rl3xu3mrcf1[.]oastify[.]com (a Burp Collaborator endpoint). The package has no repository, no description, and its only code is this exfiltration payload.
