The postinstall path (index.js) additionally reads local credential files (.env,.npmrc, package.json,../.env,../../.env), captures process.env, runs whoami/id via child_process, and POSTs the aggregated data to https://209.99.185.109/postinstall, also with rejectUnauthorized:false. Both endpoints are a bare IPv4 address with no association to a public publisher..npmrc typically contains npm auth tokens and.env commonly contains cloud/API credentials, so the transmitted data is credential-grade.
