What this malware does

On every npm install, the package's postinstall lifecycle script in package.json spawns a detached, unref'd Node process that decodes a base64-encoded payload via node -e Buffer.from(...,'base64').toString() and executes it. The decoded payload enumerates the installer's full process.env (excluding only npm_lifecycle* keys, which routinely captures CI/CD secrets, cloud credential env vars, and access tokens), reads os.networkInterfaces(), os.hostname(), os.userInfo().username, the platform, and the current working directory, and HTTPS-POSTs the collected data to a hardcoded Lark/Feishu bot webhook at open.larksuite.com/open-apis/bot/v2/hook/f1ad5ad2-4ba6-4c9d-afc2-0e908cba26a7 after a randomized 15–45 second delay. The payload also contains sandbox-evasion logic that aborts when canonical example AWS keys, dummy-token patterns (R4nD0m, F4k3T0k3n, dummy), or NODE_OPTIONS=--require analyzer hooks are detected, confirming hostile intent. The detached + unref'd spawn pattern is designed to outlive the install process and hide output.
