PyPI Package Disguised as Instagram Growth Tool Harvests User Credentials
A deceptive PyPI package posing as an Instagram growth tool collects user credentials and sends them to third-party bot services.

oidc-token-hash validates (and generates) ID Token `_hash` claims such as `at_hash` or `c_hash`
oidc-token-hash validates (and generates) ID Token _hash
claims such as at_hash
or c_hash
Its [
*_hash
] value is the base64url encoding of the left-most half of the hash of the octets of the ASCII representation of thetoken
/state
/code
value, where the hash algorithm used is the hash algorithm used in thealg
Header Parameter of the ID Token's JOSE Header. For instance, if thealg
isRS256
, hash thetoken
/state
/code
value with SHA-256, then take the left-most 128 bits and base64url encode them. The*_hash
value is a case sensitive string.
