Malicious code in discord-telemetry (PyPI)

Details

## Source: amazon-inspector (225e2e6a53c221447d09b6259d38d079c519056851186eb72405cb2904072c0b)
No a static rule matches or traced code paths indicate exfiltration, install-time code execution, credential theft, silent-relay, backdoor, or self-propagation behavior in this package version. The package name references 'discord' and 'telemetry', but a name alone is not a supply-chain threat and this version's contents do not exhibit any of the fingerprints (browser credential-store enumeration, Discord leveldb session theft, hardcoded C2 endpoint, install-time fetch-and-execute) that would justify escalation.

During installation, the package downloads and executes a remote executable. Before 0.1.5, the code contained local-only tests of malicious behaviour.
