Summary
Malicious code in @khaznatech/utils (npm)
Details

-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-

Source: amazon-inspector (3d6d321090b3f66b7766ca73a5cebf1a2d3ab2908d8d31f8423616c8094ec0a8)

The package declares a preinstall script (install-report.js) that runs on npm install. It reads os.hostname() and the current working directory basename and sends them via https.get to a hardcoded webhook.site inbox (https://webhook.site/93b065ab-227f-4253-b940-361d00e9b870/). webhook.site is an anonymous request-inspection service that has no relation to the package's stated utilities purpose. The scoped name @khaznatech/utils combined with the unusually high version number 99.0.0 is consistent with a dependency-confusion probe designed to identify internal build systems that resolve the public name over a private one.
