    Summary: Malicious code in nflx-metaflow (PyPI)

    Details: Source: kam193 (1d317c47382e978342b2098c06b1d0ff46acfefdc5a5ed6ce2b531b1f5b24fe4) Packages are designed to collect basic info about the user when importing them, and have no other purpose. While they claim to do so, some packages from the same uploader use confusing names, clearly suggesting the intention to harvest data from unintentional installations. 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: 2025-02-pxz 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. - typosquatting
