Details

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

Source: kam193 (b76166abb6c7173f1cc74e41509f4ded1be2de5cea682016e00001e4e23b75a9)

Package is designed to exfiltrate env variables during installation. However, it requires providing a URL as an installation parameter, which suggests it's more research than direct malicious intentions.

Category: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers.

Campaign: GENERIC-questionable-pentest

Reasons (based on the campaign):

  • exfiltration-env-variables

  • exfiltration-generic

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

  • typosquatting
