The fetch uses plain HTTP against a hardcoded bare IP with no version pinning, hash check, or signature verification, and the executed code is not shipped in the tarball. The package's advertised purpose is a TOTP helper, which has no functional need to fetch or execute remote code at install time. The hidden-window VBS launcher conceals execution from the installing user.
