Source: amazon-inspector (b22a9450e70ba1095097d2779ad6da01c111c37e940d890fbfc21d1aeb6a0f11)

On require, index.js silently bootstraps a full Python runtime on the installer's machine — first via winget install -e --id Python.Python.3.12 --silent, falling back to downloading python-3.12.3-amd64.exe from python.org and executing it with /quiet InstallAllUsers=0 PrependPath=1 — then silently pip installs pyautogui, keyboard, mss, pillow, pyperclip, and uiautomation. It then spawns pointer.py, which installs system-wide hotkeys (Ctrl+C, Alt+S, F8/F9/F10, Alt+M, Ctrl+Q), creates a topmost transparent always-on-top Tk window using overrideredirect(True) to hide from the user, continuously monitors clipboard contents, and on hotkeys captures full-monitor screenshots and on-screen text via UI Automation. Captured clipboard text and base64-encoded screenshots are POSTed to a hardcoded destination at https://iq-overlay-pointer.vercel.app/api. The agent also exposes a mash_callback mode that hooks keyboard.on_press with suppress=True and substitutes attacker-supplied characters via pyautogui.write(char), injecting keystrokes into whatever window is focused. The package's declared purpose — "System binary configuration tool" by author "SysDev" with keywords system/binary/util/config — does not match any of this behavior; the metadata is a cover story for a screen/clipboard surveillance and remote-keystroke-injection agent.

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.
