Root Cause Analysis
The advisory describes malicious behavior (data exfiltration) but provides no source code, commit diffs, or implementation details. While we can infer that functions
related to telemetry collection (e.g., gathering system info) and network communication (e.g., sending data to a remote server) must exist, the lack of concrete code evidence prevents specific function
identification with high confidence. Typosquatting attacks rely on package name confusion rather than specific function
vulnerabilities, making this a supply-chain issue rather than a code-level vulnerability.
