Do not edit below this line.=-_\n\n## Source: amazon-inspector (bfe27d37497e77c8f0eca9105a6b64c646c7ef1439c05ec50edaf40215037f92)\netoro-analytics@99.0.2 ships a preinstall lifecycle script (preinstall.js) that automatically runs on `npm install`. The script collects installer host identifiers (hostname, username, cwd, platform) and issues an initial HTTP GET to http://209.126.81.147/etoro-nuget-verify1f8eaa57a875/v4/<host>/<user>/<platform>/<cwd>. It then invokes child_process.execSync on platform-branched reconnaissance commands (`whoami /all`, `ipconfig /all`, `tasklist` on Windows; `whoami`, `ifconfig`, `ps aux`, `env` on POSIX) plus home/root directory listings and POSTs the output back to the same hardcoded bare-IP endpoint over plain HTTP. The package name, implausibly high version number (99.0.2), and canary-token URL path are consistent with a dependency-confusion beacon targeting an internal etoro package namespace.\n",
