Campaign data

Campaign information may not always be 100% accurate for every related package.

Campaign description

The package looks like a beginning for a further work. In fact, the uploader has shortly published a few similar packages appearing to be e.g. an integration for a known application, but containing only a "telemetry" module exfiltrating basic info about the user. This package has no other purpose than collecting data about users. In addition, it appears to be largely generated by an LLM.

See more details on the campaign page.

basic_exfiltration

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