On `npm install mazemap`, npm fetches and installs that arbitrary tarball, executing any lifecycle scripts (preinstall/install/postinstall) it contains — the tarball is bucket-owner-mutable and not subject to registry vetting. The package itself is a hollow lure: `index.js` is a 35-byte `module.exports = {};`, with no description, no author, ISC default license, and version `99.9.1` — a recognized dependency-confusion technique for overriding an internal package of the same name via a higher public version. The bucket path segment is literally `depenconf`. The combination of hollow main, inflated version, anonymous GCS-hosted dependency, and name collision with a real product (MazeMap) is a dependency-confusion / smuggling shape whose only on-install effect is to pull and execute attacker-controlled code from a non-registry source.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (b2544226891e60a2b6f33b0aacf3e4669fe4ce13220f01bd40a84c8657fe0518)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
