    Details: This package runs commands in a pre-install script that exfils sensitive data to a attacker-controlled domain. Source: ghsa-malware (87bd38c4e59327027fe55c21e59d50ddf6e0ecd5c9a488ed53932639fa8927fb) Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
