Hallucinated Software Packages with Potential Malware Downloaded Thousands of Times by Developers
2023-12-01
Large language models are reportedly hallucinating software package names, some of which are uploaded to public repositories and integrated into real code. One such package, huggingface-cli, was downloaded over 15,000 times. This behavior enables "slopsquatting," a term coined by Seth Michael Larson of the Python Software Foundation, where attackers register fake packages under AI-invented names and put supply chains at serious risk.
