Source: kam193 (9a3e0b5450d5b6de8efa950815a198f42f31514206305057d1ec10e308875244)

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):

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