@convera/ui-sharednpm

On npm install, the package's preinstall.js collects os.hostname() and os.userInfo().username and sends them as query parameters (/?hn=<hostname>&un=<username>) via https.request to am0f14nl6o1nqwrngbrq33amfdl496xv.oastify.com, a Burp Collaborator subdomain. The package ships an empty index.js (module.exports = {}) and a package.json description identifying itself as a 'bug-bounty research placeholder — Convera', published under the @convera/* scope to match a private internal namespace. Any installer who resolves this name (accidental scope resolution, misconfigured registry, or a legitimate Convera dev pulling the public registry version) silently leaks host identifiers to a third-party Collaborator endpoint with no opt-in and no functional code in return. Regardless of the author's stated research intent, this is unauthorized data collection from every installer and a dependency-confusion attack surface against the Convera organization.

Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.

The OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified '@convera/ui-shared' @ 0.0.2 (npm) as malicious.

It is considered malicious because:

• The package communicates with a domain associated with malicious activity.
