## Source: amazon-inspector (bcf0b03540a27943a2afcc26927ce7256d85328bc4fcbc2562f36a88ad75ce8d) @ppa-web-components/ppa-banner@1.0.1 is described as a 'Compatibility shim' but ships only two code paths: a no-op Proxy as its main export, and beacon.cjs. beacon.cjs defines BEACON = "http://185.158.107.175:8787/_ah/dc" and a fire() function that POSTs a JSON payload containing the package name, os.hostname(), the install path (__dirname), process.cwd(), and the Node/npm version to that bare-IP, plain-HTTP endpoint. fire() is invoked both from the postinstall lifecycle hook (`node beacon.cjs`) and from the module's main entry, so the beacon fires automatically on `npm install` and again whenever the package is required. The destination is an unrelated bare IP over cleartext HTTP, not any publisher-controlled or registry infrastructure, and the shipped stub has no functional purpose other than the beacon. The scoped-name + stub + install-time recon beacon shape is consistent with a dependency-confusion recon callback used to identify internal build environments that resolved this public name. --- Credit: OpenSSF ([source](https://github.com

03 / Response
What to do next
- investigate
Identify the exact component and deployed version, examine the linked publisher’s conditions, and retain evidence of any mitigation.
Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. GitHub Advisory Database
A fixed release is not deployment evidence.
Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
04 / Limits
What this report cannot establish
- Customer inventory, deployment, reachability and exploitation have not been inspected.
05 / Provenance
Sources you can inspect
Each assertion retains its source. Mirrored records may repeat one underlying publisher; additional links are not independent corroboration.
