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.\n\n\n---\n\nCategory: 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.\n\n\nCampaign: 2024-12- sajansubedi\n\n\nReasons (based on the campaign):\n\n\n - The package contains code to exfiltrate basic data from the system, like IP or username. It has a limited risk.\n\n\n - dependency-confusion\n","modified":"2026-03-19T12:50:59.366809Z","published":"2024-12-01T16:23:40Z","database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"versions":["20.0"],"source":"reversing-labs","sha256":"8e7aa36a37f7cb90aa58cb6535e017d69b26b83c6ea0ea270a4a08cbc504dc51","import_time":"2025-02-03T18:38:05.027987268Z","id":"RLMA-2025-00440","modified_time":"2025-02-03T17:07:08Z"},{"sha256":"46daf0e234984372045674d08d940536b2260484f6f3f0e3f51c84c126dff8f5","source":"kam193","ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"import_time":"2025-12-02T22:30:55.876657788Z","id":"pypi/2024-12- sajansubedi/bancor-simulation","modified_time":"2024-12-01T16:23:40Z"},{"sha256":"8e9ecf6b613a42c070932a842fc4ebe81508d28adbb0aecee9aebe4e530acc0a","source":"kam193","ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"import_time":"2025-12-02T23:07:19.059795805Z","id":"pypi/2024-12- sajansubedi/bancor-simulation","modified_time":"2024-12-01T16:23:40Z"},{"versions":["20.0"],"source":"kam193","sha256":"0bebb0c7ec82b3d799d7b623e90def23e27d6c97b40dce38b1e8ed5767031f03","import_time":"2025-12-10T21:38:58.199334746Z","id":"pypi/2024-12- sajansubedi/bancor-simulation","modified_time":"2024-12-01T16:23:40Z"},{"source":"reversing-labs","sha256":"416a1d6648fbd222f6c46644d0dd8a0a02f266d85d5810ad3a56219f900305ab","import_time":"2026-03-19T12:19:28.54275644Z","id":"RLUA-2026-00135","modified_time":"2026-03-18T12:11:47Z"}]},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://bad-packages.kam193.eu/pypi/package/bancor-simulation"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"bancor-simulation","ecosystem":"PyPI","purl":"pkg:pypi/bancor-simulation"},"versions":["20.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages/blob/main/osv/malicious/pypi/bancor-simulation/MAL-2025-902.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","credits":[{"name":"Kamil Mańkowski (kam193)","contact":["https://github.com/kam193","https://bad-packages.kam193.eu/"]},{"name":"Kamil Mańkowski (kam193)","contact":["https://github.com/kam193","https://bad-packages.kam193.eu/"],"type":"REPORTER"},{"name":"ReversingLabs","contact":["https://www.reversinglabs.com"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
