Suspicious. This package downloads code from paste sites or raw URLs instead of using normal package managers. This is a common trick to sneak in malicious code that doesn't show up in the package itself.

Technical details

Network requests to paste sites or raw GitHub content may indicate payload downloading. Legitimate dependencies use npm, not pastebins.

Suspicious. This package loads code from an unknown location decided at runtime. We can't tell what it will actually run because it depends on a variable. This makes it harder to verify the package is safe.

Technical details

Dynamic require/import with variable arguments loads code determined at runtime. This can be used to load payloads that static analysis can't detect.
