The tarball contains a single file, index.html, declared as the package main. The HTML renders a Cloudflare Turnstile-themed 'verification' page containing obfuscator.io-style JavaScript that, on Turnstile callback, reconstructs a target URL and calls window.location.replace to redirect the browser. package.json declares no preinstall/install/postinstall/prepare lifecycle scripts, and npm cannot require an HTML main, so installing or importing this package performs no code execution on a developer machine. The obfuscated redirect only fires if a human opens index.html in a browser and completes the Turnstile widget; the target audience is browser visitors, not npm installers. The package appears to be abuse of the npm registry as static hosting for an obfuscated redirector / likely phishing landing page rather than a supply-chain attack against installers.

Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.
