On every WhatsApp `connection.update` where `connection === 'open'`, after a 30-second delay the library fetches a JSON list of channel IDs from a hardcoded, author-controlled GitHub raw URL on a mutable branch (`https://raw.githubusercontent.com/noxXza/data/refs/heads/main/noxXza.json`) and, for each ID, invokes `newsletterFollow` followed by `newsletterMute` on the installer's authenticated WhatsApp account, with randomized shuffling and delay jitter. The behavior is not disclosed in the package README, is not gated behind an opt-in flag, and uses the installer's own WhatsApp identity to perform actions the caller did not request. Because the channel-ID list is served from a mutable `main` branch, the set of followed accounts can be changed by the author at any time without a package release. Additional helpers in `generics.js` (`hwaifu()`, `fetchLatestBaileysVersion()`) also fetch JSON from mutable-branch author-controlled GitHub raw URLs (`raw.githubusercontent.com/ramadanny/...`), but only as data (no code eval) and not auto-invoked at import/install time. No credential theft, environment scraping, install-time code execution, dropper behavior, or backdoor mechanism is present.

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.
