**Severity:** Critical

## Source: amazon-inspector (5aa2bc32ff519468287f8a87deeff1349332b710735b9f78ee34ffd46c9511cb)
package.json declares a `preinstall` lifecycle script that runs `curl` to a hardcoded webhook.site collector URL (https://webhook.site/b2967b0a-1b24-4670-8ae1-e09e3cf272c4/) with the installer's hostname and username interpolated as query parameters via `$(hostname)` and `$(whoami)`. This fires automatically on `npm install` and transmits installer host identifiers to a third-party collector controlled by whoever provisioned the webhook.site endpoint. The destination is a generic request-capture service, not infrastructure associated with any declared publisher, and the data flow is unconditional on install.
