Analysis
Combosquat package impersonating a jQuery UI submodule. The preinstall hook (node callback.js) collects hostname, username, current working directory, npm registry URL, and CI/CD environment variables (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Travis, Drone, Buildkite, CircleCI, Jenkins) and sends them via HTTP GET to 75[.]119[.]137[.]232:31337 at path /depconfuse. The inflated version number (9999.0.0) and scoped name are characteristic of dependency-confusion attacks targeting internal registries.
