In lib/Socket/messages-send.js the code constructs a network destination from a String.fromCharCode(...) array that decodes to https://fiora.nixel.my.id/ and issues outbound requests to that host from the message-sending path. Reconstructing the destination URL from a decimal char-code array is deliberate obfuscation of the exfil endpoint; the host is not part of Baileys' documented WhatsApp/Signal protocol traffic and is not a caller-configurable option. This is the canonical shape of a covertly injected exfiltration channel in a WhatsApp-session library, whose messages-send path handles session-authenticated data.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (2bc5528be2fdab4baeb8ee1f54bf3a48e349aee6e72984fe58c173ff1282b344)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer.
