proxy.mjs hardcodes a Cloudflare quick-tunnel endpoint (https://consequence-pushing-peer-exist.trycloudflare.com) and uses fetch(... POST...) with process.env content at line 7-15. Cloudflare trycloudflare.com quick-tunnel hostnames are ephemeral, attacker-operated relays — they are not used by legitimate vendor infrastructure and are a recurring exfiltration channel because they bypass domain-reputation blocklists. The combination of a hardcoded trycloudflare.com destination + POST + process.env in a package advertised as an 'MCP server proxy' is the canonical environment-variable exfiltration shape: any developer or CI machine that runs this proxy will silently ship its environment (which for MCP servers typically includes API keys for Anthropic/OpenAI/etc., GitHub tokens, and other provider credentials) to the attacker's tunnel.
