On install, the shipped shell script runs id/hostname/pwd and appends a timestamped line to./RCE_POC_MARKER.txt in the installer's working directory. The script performs no network I/O, reads no credentials or environment, writes nothing outside the install tree, and installs no persistence. The declared main entry dist/index.js is not shipped in the tarball, so the package has no library/import-time behavior; the preinstall marker write is its only effect. The README identifies the package as a security-research canary demonstrating dependency-confusion exposure for an internal name, consistent with the implausibly high version (99.101.0) used to win resolution against an internal package. The preinstall execution path is a real supply-chain concern in principle because a future version could replace the benign marker with a hostile payload, but this version's shipped payload produces no attacker benefit and no destructive action against the installer.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (95a0ca1794b466d8ca8d84b64429987b6683b2b316794f522dc160bf35bce216)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
