On execution, it collects installer host identifiers (current working directory, home directory, hostname, username) and reads the contents of /etc/resolv.conf, /etc/passwd, and /etc/hosts, serializes them as JSON, and transmits them over a TLS TCPSocket POST to the hardcoded host d8mjdyfukgwrvkth4n83toa0xr3lrgf5.oastify.com.
