Details
**Severity:** Critical **Affected versions:** `= 10.0.1` ## Source: kam193 (a346a7f634bedd557ab051ccf33b892a2b6420a97c426a877476b7a66b1acf55) On importing the module, package exfiltrates basic data like username. It's obfuscated with a lot of meaningless text and 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: 2025-03-pyrovider 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. --- Credit: [OpenSSF](https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages) ([source](https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages/blob/49d0cfba3689ed9b195d101d3a2a964c6a77f767/osv/malicious/pypi/pyrovider/MAL-2025-191836.json)) **References:** - https://bad-packages.kam193.eu/pypi/package/pyrovider - https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages/blob/49d0cfba3689ed9b195d101d3a2a964c6a77f767/osv/malicious/pypi/pyrovider/MAL-2025-191836.json - https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-qwjj-62q6-67mg
