scan-https-d

Research sample for a study of npm's publish-time scanning behaviour.

From postinstall, sends a small JSON document over HTTPS to an endpoint operated by the maintainer, then exits. The document contains the package name and version, the resolved registry URL, the install directory, hostname, username, platform and local interface addresses.

It does not read environment variables, process arguments, files, credentials or cloud metadata, does not spawn a shell and does not persist anything.

This variant carries NO dual-use declaration. Its counterpart scan-https-e carries an identical payload plus contentPolicy metadata and a DISCLOSURE file, so the two together isolate the effect of the declaration on the scanner verdict.

Maintainer: s4yhii__ (security researcher). Not intended for production use.
