Description

Source: kam193 (0ca34d571eaf519847a961f7da1f203d35f7a3c011f5fd4df3744f50a0615d2e)

Package attempts to collect environment variables from a specific environment, self-identified as BigQuery user-defined functions research. The final exfiltration of collected data seems to require the control of the execution environment, supporting the research/pentest claims.


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.

Reasons (based on the campaign):

  • abuses-pth

  • exfiltration-env-variables

  • The package contains code to exfiltrate basic data from the system, like IP or username. It has a limited risk.
