On `npm install`, index.js collects host identity (`hostname`, `whoami`, `id`, `uname -a`, `pwd`) and recursively lists filesystem roots `/`, `/home`, `/opt`, `/var/www`, and `/tmp` to depth 2, base64-encodes the aggregated output, and exfiltrates it as chunked `nslookup` DNS queries to the hardcoded subdomain `dfwstre3dgnrhwm2bvkczgucc3iv6lua.oastify.com` (a Burp Collaborator interaction host controlled by whoever generated the subdomain). The package's own `package.json` additionally declares itself as a dependency (`\"test89-auth\": \"^1.0.1\"`), an anomalous self-referential shape consistent with red-team/PoC scaffolding. There is no legitimate functionality corresponding to the advertised `auth` purpose; the entire install-time behavior is host reconnaissance and filesystem enumeration exfiltrated off-host.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (b9804ac60d32539c7ecd5210ee4b28205acbe8a9e10ac0187d836a0bab36fc7d)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
