It has a limited risk. - The package overrides the install command in setup.py to execute malicious code during installation. ## Source: ossf-package-analysis (989f0ca58fc60013559b95cadc24b743ad1255ae87ea38ec31f93c0ee949424e) The OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified 'pyqubee' @ 12.1.1 (pypi) as malicious.
