The destination is a Burp Collaborator OOB endpoint unrelated to any documented package purpose, and execution is automatic at install time.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (0723c99e49b056e9d946985e6401afa50ee28e766b0e7e0993914f4ad3538723)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
