Malicious code in trinity-scheme (npm)

Source: amazon-inspector (5d576c0487668f599137a479e17ddc1335935fdec631f7d5adfa9e73049d7652)

On npm install, the package's preinstall lifecycle reads a hex-encoded command string from preinstall.json, decodes it via Buffer.from(..., 'hex'), and passes the decoded shell command to child_process.exec. The decoded payload collects the installer's whoami, pwd, and hostname output and POSTs the values to the hardcoded endpoint https://eo7o7j442dx6yl6.m.pipedream.net/. The command is stored in hex form to evade plain-text scanning; the package otherwise provides no functionality consistent with its declared name.
