    Summary: Malicious code in aegis-runtime (npm)

    Details: Source: amazon-inspector (a66d1f02c3c943836d41a7ec92c150c5529880890a4cc502115412dddb0c519c) The package's declared postinstall hook runs `node src/test.js`, which issues an HTTPS GET to https://workconfig.vercel.app with TLS certificate validation disabled (`rejectUnauthorized: false`) and passes the response body to `new Function('require', data.toString())(require)`, executing the fetched payload with access to the installer's `require` at `npm install` time. The destination is a mutable, non-registry, non-publisher host unrelated to the package's advertised purpose. Package metadata presents the module as a Node.js runtime monitoring and diagnostics toolkit and lists the placeholder author `Your Name`; the postinstall behavior is unrelated to the advertised monitor sources.
