Malicious code in utility-kit-ts (npm)

Any code the remote host returns executes in the caller's Node.js process with full library privileges. A separate function setDefaultModule constructs a plausible cdnjs/font-awesome URL from an icon-domain map but is never called from any export, serving as decoy alongside the actual bare-IP eval sink. The package is advertised in its README as a zero-dependency TypeScript utility toolkit, but package.json declares dependencies (@primno/dpapi for Windows DPAPI unwrap, better-sqlite3, node-machine-id, socket.io-client, request) that are inconsistent with utility helpers and are pre-staged for the fetched payload to require — the building blocks of a credential/browser-cookie stealer.
