Example package with overwritten install command and the reverse shell
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: 2024-11-dftester-pip
Reasons (based on the campaign):
-
The package overrides the install command in setup.py to execute malicious code during installation.
-
The package contains code to create a reverse shell, allowing an attacker to execute any commands on the victim's machine.
