--- _-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_ ## Source: kam193 (b0f8bc12f61546bde84dd1d7a64519fcdc55ce875b71f3d8d848d2d5daa2248d) This is a copy of https://pypi.org/project/play-scraper/ with added a very questionable "telemetry": in scraper.py, L90 sends the user hostname, IP and the exact local ID of scraped application to the package author. --- 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: 2024-09-old-google-play-store 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. - dependency-confusion - action-hidden-in-lib-usage - clones-real-package
