On npm install, preinstall.js collects hostname, username, platform, cwd, and the full process.env and POSTs the JSON payload over HTTPS to the bare-IP endpoint https://209.99.185.109/preinstall with TLS verification disabled (rejectUnauthorized:false). A postinstall path additionally reads.env,.npmrc, package.json, and parent-directory.env files via fs.readFileSync, executes whoami/id via child_process, and POSTs the collected contents to https://209.99.185.109/postinstall with certificate verification disabled. The tarball also ships a login.ps1 referencing an external npm account ([email protected]). The.npmrc read yields the installer's npm auth token and the.env reads yield application secrets; both leave the installer's machine to an attacker-controlled bare IP at install time.
