## Source: amazon-inspector (3553acd3c5abc3f71b55740c4b06b2eb278f81bb678c55211f2287a498b60b61)
The package's preinstall hook runs index.js, which collects the installer's hostname, username, home directory, DNS servers, current working directory, package.json contents, and the contents of /etc/passwd and /etc/hosts, then POSTs them over HTTPS to the hardcoded Burp Collaborator subdomain vjib8dmg59zuxwwymzboy0ymhdn4bvzk.oastify.com. Execution is automatic on npm install via the preinstall lifecycle script, with no user interaction required.
