Advisory PublishedCVSS 5.4/10
This package is a self-described dependency-confusion / security-research PoC ('internal placeholder (security research PoC)') published by a zero-history account 'haxster'. The setup.py fires on install, egg_info, and build phases, collecting hostname and username and exfiltrating them via DNS and HTTP to a Burp Collaborator / oastify.com OAST endpoint (lxmvrxcjz4d4m7k36qyjcxyg57byzond.oastify.com). The attacker model is classic dependency confusion: publish a high-version internal-namespace package and beacon back when CI/CD or a developer inadvertently installs it. Although the author labels it a PoC, OSM policy treats such packages as suspicious rather than benign because they actively exfiltrate real victim environment data to an attacker-controlled OAST listener — the 'PoC' label is unverifiable and the package has real code-exec-on-install capability. The static score of 25 grossly understates the risk given the critical OAST finding and install-hook chain.
