Security research PoC - pip takeover for DataDog dd-trace-api-py
Project description
dd-trace-api-py
Security Research - Package Takeover PoC
This package was registered as part of responsible security research.
The package name dd-trace-api-py is referenced in official Datadog documentation
(dd-trace-api-py quickstart)
but was not registered on PyPI, making it vulnerable to supply chain takeover via
pip install dd-trace-api-py.
The real Datadog tracer package on PyPI is ddtrace — docs use a different name.
Impact
Any developer following official docs who runs the documented command would execute attacker-controlled code.
This package is harmless
It only prints a warning message. No data is collected.
