Analysis

The preinstall hook (node callback.js) collects the hostname, username, current working directory, npm registry URL, and CI/CD environment variables (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Travis, Drone, Buildkite, CircleCI, Jenkins identifiers) and sends them via HTTP GET to 75[.]119[.]137[.]232:31337/depconfuse. This is a dependency-confusion recon beacon that profiles the install environment to identify high-value CI/CD targets for follow-on supply-chain attacks.
