    Details: Source: kam193 (96d927b6bf59d0d5aeea78de6b99df11c32ad0e467da980917a16703d5a1c0d1) Package tests possible malicious actions during installation by starting notepad. There is no other functionality, it's clearly a test of possible malicious actions. 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: GENERIC-simple-tests Reasons (based on the campaign): - The package overrides the install command in setup.py to execute malicious code during installation.
