Summary

On require, index.js collects process.env, hostname, username, homedir, platform, and cwd, base64-encodes the blob, and POSTs it to api.telegram.org/bot<token>/sendMessage with a hardcoded bot token and chat_id 8969499041. A tmp marker file gates repeat sends. The package presents itself as a drop-in for the popular config package (typosquat), attempts to require('config') and re-exports it to preserve apparent functionality, and uses randomized variable names to obscure the exfiltration path.
