Official description
package.json declares a preinstall lifecycle script that runs automatically during
npm install. The script executes hostname, whoami, and pwd, then uses curl to POST the combined output (current user, host name, and install directory) as a urlencoded info field to https://webhook.site/1ea0386f-dcc0-4f1b-bdbb-61732d6535fb/ogd-analytics. webhook.site is an anonymous request-bin service, not a publisher-controlled domain, and the beacon has no relation to any advertised analytics functionality. The behavior is unconditional installer-side reconnaissance — user identity, machine identity, and filesystem location are exfiltrated to a third-party collector on every install, providing an attacker the host inventory needed for follow-on targeting (dependency confusion, internal-build-system fingerprinting).What should I do about MAL-2026-5987?
Remove the package from your dependencies and lockfiles, then rotate any secrets on machines where it was installed.
