Security Research PoC — Do Not Use
This NuGet package is a proof-of-concept for a confirmed dependency confusion
vulnerability. It contains no malicious payload. During the consuming
project's build it sends:
whoami (current OS username)
hostname (machine hostname)
- the package id + version
- platform + timestamp
…to a researcher-controlled webhook.site URL, then exits.
It does not read files, dump environment variables, attempt persistence, or do
any further network activity. Build failures are suppressed so the host build
is never broken.
If your build pulled this package by accident: the underlying vulnerability is
that your project references a NuGet ID that the original maintainer never
registered on nuget.org. Please flag it to the upstream project.
This package will be unlisted as soon as responsible disclosure to the
affected project completes, or within 30 days of publication.
