Every version was published to cause harm.\n\nTask:\n1. Search this repository's dependency manifests and lockfiles for the package, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If it is present, remove it, regenerate the lockfile with the project's package manager, and replace whatever it was used for.\n3. List any CI runners, developer machines or containers that installed it, so their secrets can be rotated.\n4. If the package is not used anywhere, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-5696/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-5696/index.md)","id":"MAL-2026-5696","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-5696/index.md","name":"MAL-2026-5696","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3vr9-xc7m-h6qx"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"package.json declares both preinstall and postinstall lifecycle hooks that execute callback.js on `npm install`. callback.js collects installer-side identifiers (os.hostname(), username, uid/gid, homedir, platform, cwd, local IP, external IP via https://api.ipify.org, Node version, package name) and CI environment indicators (presence of GITHUB_TOKEN/AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID/NPM_TOKEN, GITHUB_REPOSITORY, GITHUB_ACTOR, JENKINS_URL, etc.) and POSTs the JSON payload to a hardcoded Discord webhook at discord.com/api/webhooks/1514602063399747595/\u003credacted\u003e.
