Packages that might be part of testing for pentesting / malicious activity / joy, with suspicious activity that does not present any real harm.

Category: PROBABLY_PENTEST - Packages looking like typical pentest packages, but also anything that looks like testing, exploring pre-prepared kits, research & co, with clearly low-harm possibilities.

Campaign: GENERIC-simple-tests

Reasons (based on the campaign):
