The package is not a malware because the evidence presented is insufficient to make that determination. While the evidence points to a low-trust package due to the few published versions, low GitHub stars, and potentially low OpenSSF score (unspecified in the evidence), none of these factors definitively indicate malicious intent. The lack of any evidence of malicious behavior within the package itself (e.g., code analysis, LLM analysis, YARA rule matches despite the acknowledged limitations of YARA), or any indication of malicious activity associated with the package's use, is crucial. Low popularity and a small number of versions suggest immaturity or lack of community support, which are risk factors, but not proof of maliciousness. Further investigation is needed, including a thorough code review and analysis of the package's functionality, before concluding that es-object-atoms is malware. The current evidence only suggests a potential risk due to the lack of community scrutiny and established trustworthiness, not confirmed malicious behavior.
