AI Analysis
The package exhibits moderate risks due to its obfuscated code and potential for direct shell execution. While there is no clear evidence of malicious intent, the incomplete metadata and use of obfuscation techniques warrant further scrutiny.
- High obfuscation risk
- Potential for shell command misuse
Per-check LLM notes
- Network: The network call pattern suggests the package may be checking for updates or version information from a remote server, which is not inherently malicious but should be verified.
- Shell: Direct shell execution can pose risks if misused; the observed clear command and pip install actions seem benign but could potentially be used for more harmful purposes.
- Obfuscation: The code shows signs of obfuscation with base64 and zlib compression, which could be used to hide logic or data.
- Credentials: No clear patterns of credential harvesting were detected.
- Metadata: The maintainer's author information is incomplete, suggesting a potential lack of transparency.
