@thenewoil This is in the notorious PyPI, no?Malware reports should make a distinction between repos that are thoroughly curated and those that are not. PyPI has not taken all the steps it needs to be considered curated; putting a stop to new projects isn't nearly enough.People who use PyPI content directly should know they are taking a big risk. If the malware is found in Debian or Fedora repos, that is much more serious.
