Both postinstall.js (npm install lifecycle hook) and index.js (main, runs on require) issue an unconditional HTTPS GET to https://icy-cell-fb53.gh0stfqce25.workers.dev/poc carrying the package name and installer Node.js runtime version as query parameters. Any developer or build system whose package manager misroutes the internal name 'cb-wallet-data' to the public npm registry will silently transmit the existence of that internal name plus their Node version to a third-party Cloudflare Workers endpoint without consent. While the payload is narrow (no credential or environment scraping), the channel is a confirmed install-time and import-time beacon to attacker/researcher-controlled infrastructure, exposing internal namespace and toolchain metadata that itself is sensitive supply-chain reconnaissance data.

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.
