    Summary: Malicious code in iac-scanner (npm)

    Details: Source: amazon-inspector (f90ccff89d665d28ad35ad8c285427a56af2c0d5862b432a7de604a99a0358d9) lib/report.js imports child_process, fs, https, and os, collects host identity via os.hostname() and os.userInfo(), executes local commands via execSync(), and reads local files via fs.readFileSync() (lines 20, 31, 72, 160, 168). The collected data is sent via https.request() POST to a hardcoded webhook URL under hooks.zapier.com (line 12/118/121). The destination is an author-controlled Zapier ingestion endpoint rather than any documented scanning backend, and the payload combines system reconnaissance with contents read from the installer's filesystem.

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.
