Summary

The package's npm postinstall script curls cloud instance-metadata endpoints (AWS 169.254.169.254, Alibaba 100.100.100.200, Tencent metadata.tencentyun.com and 169.254.0.23), retrieves the AWS IAM security-credentials for the attached instance role, lists /data/, and POSTs the collected output to a hardcoded attacker-controlled interact.sh (OAST) subdomain at ycrqyyjhwepdmhjifyccxss1hrks8lcd2.oast.fun. A bundled postinstall.js additionally reads the installer's ~/.ssh directory and POSTs username, platform, and key-file listings via HTTPS to the hardcoded IP 124.221.154.135:443/post. The declared package purpose (date formatting utility) has no relationship to cloud metadata queries or SSH-directory enumeration. Running npm install on this package hands short-lived IAM credentials and SSH material to the attacker.
