package.json declares both preinstall and postinstall scripts that run `node callback.js`, so the callback fires automatically on `npm install` with no user interaction. callback.js collects identifying data from the installer's machine — os.hostname(), os.userInfo().username, process.cwd(), the consuming package name@version, and process.platform/arch — and transmits it to two attacker-controlled collectors: (1) a DNS lookup whose label is the hex-encoded hostname under a canarytokens.com subdomain, and (2) an HTTPS GET to https://eolxuw8fddeyjj8.m.pipedream.net carrying the collected fields as query parameters. The callback wraps all I/O in try/catch and forces process.exitCode=0, so the install completes silently even if the network call fails, hiding the beacon from the installer. The package self-describes as a dependency-confusion proof-of-concept, but the behavior is genuine install-time exfiltration of installer-identifying data and harms any machine that runs `npm install`.
