On npm install, the package's preinstall.js collects os.hostname() and os.userInfo().username and sends them as query parameters (/?hn=<hostname>&un=<username>) via https.request to am0f14nl6o1nqwrngbrq33amfdl496xv.oastify.com, a Burp Collaborator subdomain. The package ships an empty index.js (module.exports = {}) and a package.json description identifying itself as a 'bug-bounty research placeholder — Convera', published under the @convera/* scope to match a private internal namespace. Any installer who resolves this name (accidental scope resolution, misconfigured registry, or a legitimate Convera dev pulling the public registry version) silently leaks host identifiers to a third-party Collaborator endpoint with no opt-in and no functional code in return. Regardless of the author's stated research intent, this is unauthorized data collection from every installer and a dependency-confusion attack surface against the Convera organization.
The OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified '@convera/ui-shared' @ 0.0.2 (npm) as malicious.
It is considered malicious because:
