--- _-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_ ## Source: amazon-inspector (6b9bdabc95f4e8bc70e348557c1cae7d2447d9bd1405ac7a23945ded47ec04a8) package.json declares preinstall and postinstall lifecycle scripts that invoke curl against the hardcoded cleartext endpoint http://tko.amgsec.com/depconf/traktis-environment/, sending the output of whoami, hostname, cwd, a timestamp, and a base64-encoded dump of CI/build environment variables matched by the pattern GITHUB_*, CI_PROJECT, JENKINS_URL, BUILD_URL, GITLAB_*, RUNNER_*, HOSTNAME, USER, HOME as query parameters. index.js is a 55-byte placeholder comment and author is listed as 'anonymous'; the manifest lifecycle scripts are the entire functional payload. The name occupies the @traktis scope at version 99.99.2, a version-inflation shape consistent with dependency-confusion resolution against an internal package of the same name. Installing the package on any developer workstation or CI runner automatically transmits build-system identity and any credential-shaped environment variables covered by the grep pattern to a third-party host over plain HTTP.
