AI Analysis
Final verdict: SUSPICIOUS
The package shows minimal risk in terms of network calls, shell execution, obfuscation, and credential harvesting. However, its novelty and limited activity make it suspicious, especially concerning potential supply-chain attacks.
- Newly created package with limited activity
- Potential for command injection due to shell execution
Per-check LLM notes
- Network: No network calls were detected, which is typical and not suspicious.
- Shell: Shell execution attempts to run dbt commands, likely for version checks or similar benign purposes, but could indicate potential for command injection if not properly sanitized.
- Obfuscation: No obfuscation patterns detected, indicating low risk.
- Credentials: No credential harvesting patterns detected, indicating low risk.
- Metadata: The package is newly created with limited activity and a single release, raising suspicion but lacking clear malicious indicators.
