---

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: 2025-12-sec-lab-it


Reasons (based on the campaign):


 - dependency-confusion


 - The package contains code to exfiltrate basic data from the system, like IP or username. It has a limited risk.


 - typosquatting
