The destination is a cleartext bare-IP endpoint, not a first-party registry or vendor host, and the beacon fires on `pip install` with no documentation, no opt-out, and no caller configuration. The package ships no functional code and self-describes as a defensive placeholder squatting an internal project name, but that framing is author-controlled and does not change that installer identity + host + cwd leave the machine to an attacker-controlled destination on install.\n\n## Source: kam193 (9609b278449fb9d196f4929f422f22288aa202df7b8417d91053ab0180711bb8)\nInstalling the package or importing the module exfiltrates basic information about the host, and the package has no other purpose.\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: GENERIC-standard-pypi-install-pentest\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.
