Malicious code in test1ro (npm)

--- _-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_ ## Source: amazon-inspector (8166d7eaf8dab64a6c21d0e0a871c64e213147082a414b93816fb080c8044b1e) package.json declares preinstall and postinstall hooks that run `node index.js`, which reads `os.hostname()` and issues an HTTP GET to the hardcoded third-party collector `http://eo8f3m3ho26a0nm.m.pipedream.net/<package>?h=<hostname>`. The behavior fires automatically during `npm install` without any user action, transmitting the installer's host identifier and the resolved package name to an external Pipedream request-bin. The manifest also declares `test1ro: ^999.99.99` as its own dependency at an implausibly high version, characteristic of a dependency-confusion artifact designed to be resolved from public npm ahead of an internal package of the same name. The generic name, self-referential high-version pin, and install-time beacon to an attacker-controlled collector match the standard dependency-confusion probe shape.
