## Public findings

### 1. High: Osv Malicious Advisory
- **Category:** External Intel
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Package version 9999.0.0 is published with placeholder metadata ("Shared utility helpers.", no author) — the canonical shape of a dependency-confusion squat designed to override an internal package of the same name during resolution. On \`npm install\`, the \`scripts.preinstall\` hook runs \`node callback.js\`, which reads \`os.hostname()\`, \`os.userInfo().username\`, the current working directory, the configured npm registry, and CI-provided repository identifiers (e.g. \`process.env.GITHUB\_REPOSITORY\`) and sends them via HTTP GET to \`http://75.119.137.232:31337/depconfuse?pkg=...\`, a hardcoded bare-IP endpoint over cleartext HTTP. This provides an external operator with the internal package name, host identity, and originating CI repository slug of every environment where the squat is installed — reconnaissance for further dependency-confusion attacks against the victim's internal package namespace.
