Details

-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-

Source: kam193 (0246f55913ed7c36615843f23e434366bb7e1491332d526c91700a891ee8fde7)

Installing the package or importing the module exfiltrates basic information about the host, and the package has no other purpose.

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-standard-pypi-install-pentest

Reasons (based on the campaign):

  • The package contains code to exfiltrate basic data from the system, like IP or username. It has a limited risk.

  • The package overrides the install command in setup.py to execute malicious code during installation.

Source: ossf-package-analysis (9081a9b552f5805c1eb91e604d0f7d814fb78c7f263eaff2630e5f54a7d00bc0)

The OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified 'cugraph-service-client' @ 23.99.0 (pypi) as malicious.

It is considered malicious because:

  • The package communicates with a domain associated with malicious activity.

  • The package executes one or more commands associated with malicious behavior.
