The dangerous part is how routine it feels.
A repo is shared. The candidate is asked to run it. One `npm install` can expose SSH keys, cloud credentials, browser sessions, env vars, or crypto wallets.
This is why suspicious coding tests should be checked before they are run.
Fake recruiters are targeting developers with “technical assignments” that hide malware.
