AI Analysis
Final verdict: SUSPICIOUS
The package shows signs of potential obfuscation and has been recently uploaded by a maintainer with limited history, raising concerns about its legitimacy.
- obfuscation risk due to base64 encoding
- metadata risk due to recent creation and limited maintainer history
Per-check LLM notes
- Network: No network calls detected, which is normal.
- Shell: Git commands suggest the package interacts with local repositories, likely for version control purposes.
- Obfuscation: The use of base64 encoding and decoding might indicate an attempt to obfuscate data, but it could also be used for legitimate purposes such as secure data transmission.
- Credentials: No clear evidence of credential harvesting was found.
- Metadata: The recent creation and upload of the package along with the maintainer's limited history suggest potential risk.
