gpaas-paypal@28.0.0

On npm install, the package's preinstall script runs index.js which collects the installer's hostname, platform, architecture, home directory path, and configured DNS servers, then POSTs them via HTTPS to t4ygm1p2e1grblohe7f7nlf0krqjef24.oastify.com/hit (a Burp Suite Collaborator subdomain used as an attacker-controlled callback endpoint). The package self-describes as a dependency-confusion proof of concept; installation causes automatic exfiltration of host reconnaissance data to a third-party endpoint before any user code runs. ## Source: ghsa-malware (04c01a5b087d1c4d6ae8700fd1fee92cdb45c5a77f59a62723b17b5aa43e7f5d) Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
