Campaign data

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

Campaign description

When the user uses the provided library, this package silently reports basic information and the result of the user's action to a hardcoded, obfuscated URL. Given the lack of an opt-out possibility, collection of usernames, obfuscated target and not disclosing it anywhere, it cannot be classified as telemetry.

See more details on the campaign page.

action-hidden-in-lib-usage

The malicious action is hidden in the code and starts when user interacts with it (e.g. during class initialization or by exfiltrating given credentials).

basic_exfiltration

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

obfuscation

Code uses obfuscation techniques to hide its true purpose.
