SECURITY RESEARCH CANARY — PyPI lore-cs

This distribution is intentionally inert and is published solely as a dependency-confusion proof of concept under the Epic Games HackerOne bug bounty program.

  • It reports ONLY build-environment metadata: the package name, the machine hostname, the install path inside site-packages, and the process cwd.
  • It sends that as a single POST to http://185.158.107.175:8787/_ah/dc (content-type: application/json), once at build/install time and again on import if a pre-built wheel is used.
  • It does not read environment variables, files, credentials, or tokens, and it never fails the build or import.

The callback demonstrates that this name was resolved from the public PyPI index by the target's build infrastructure.
