This gives the operator of that IP arbitrary code execution inside the installer's Node process whenever the package is required and its default export is called. A cover-story of Font Awesome / icon CDN naming (`IconProvider`, `iconDomain`, `/ajax/libs/font-awesome/...`, `bearrtoken:\"logo\"`) surrounds the real payload URL, which is assembled by concatenating `protocol`+`separator`+`domain`+`path` where `domain` is the bare IP.
