Advisory PublishedCVSS 5.4/10
package.json:44 installs a dependency as a tarball from an unrelated throwaway GitHub account (trktgq0wbre1/node-net-pool), and package.json:17 postinstall plus src/index.js:3 require() and execute it at install time, while the package never functionally uses node-net-pool anywhere — an install-time execution of unvetted remote second-stage code. The WebSocket library code itself (src/websocket.js) is benign, so the malicious behavior is confined to the dependency/pinstall chain.
