## Source: amazon-inspector (9a78be97ab9e11940bb49de80859b21f1de27b8f078bad4067b227fbc99d2413) The package `china_airlines` contains no JavaScript library code. Its `package.json` declares `"main": "index.html"`, and the shipped `index.html` is a fake Cloudflare 'Just a moment...' interstitial with a fake Turnstile widget and a dynamically generated fake Ray ID. The `onTurnstileComplete` handler is heavily obfuscated (obfuscator.io-style hex-named identifiers, rotating string array, self-defense wrappers) and decodes a hidden `targetUrl` from the encoded string table, forwards the current page's query parameters onto that URL via `URLSearchParams(...).forEach`, and calls `window.location.assign(targetUrl)`. A legitimate Cloudflare challenge does not decode its next-hop URL out of an obfuscated string array. The package appears designed to abuse npm plus its public CDN mirrors (unpkg / jsDelivr) as free hosting for a brand-impersonating phishing landing page; the victims are browser users who follow CDN links to the file, not developers who `npm install` it. The install/require surface itself is inert (no lifecycle scripts, no library code executed at install or import time), so there is no direct installer-side exfiltration, RCE, or credential theft.

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.
