github-policy-bot @1.0.0

Summary

On npm install , the package's postinstall script collects host identifiers (os.hostname(), platform, arch, node version, package name, npm lifecycle event) and POSTs them as JSON to the hardcoded host vlfl47tl.instances.poc.jchunt.top at path /github-policy-bot. The outbound request is fail-silent (error handler swallows failures) and short-timeout, consistent with a beacon. The package name shadows the Google-owned js-github-policy-bot repository path referenced in the tarball's source.txt, and the package.json author is a placeholder ( r00tdaddy ) with a self-declared 'security research canary' purpose — an author-controlled label that does not change the behavior. Installing this package causes unsolicited disclosure of the installer's hostname and environment metadata to a third-party endpoint the installer did not configure.
