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.

The package provides no advertised functionality — `package.json` self-describes as a 'Security PoC for Bug Bounty' and no `main` module is shipped; the bin's sole effect is the outbound beacon. The package name targets Google's `xrblocks` namespace as a dependency-confusion / typosquat probe. Regardless of whether the operator is a bug-bounty researcher, installers and build systems that resolve this package have a project identifier transmitted to a third-party host without consent.\n\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
