Advisory PublishedCVSS 8.8/10
On `npm install`, the package's declared postinstall script executes index.js, which collects a host fingerprint (hostname, username, home directory, cwd, platform/arch/OS release, CPU model, memory, network interfaces including MAC/OUI, process info) and enumerates process.env for variable names matching TOKEN|SECRET|KEY|PASS|AWS_|GCP_|AZURE_|SSH|GIT|NPM|DOCKER. The collected data is transmitted via HTTPS GET to the hardcoded third-party endpoint telegrambot-aebk.onrender.com/ping. The behavior fires automatically on install without opt-in and discloses the installer's host identity and credential-variable inventory to an author-controlled destination.
