Known bad PyPi packages
Pyup.io has a community db over here with a big json of package containing vulnerabilities. I am afraid you will have to dig in the data to find a way to filter malicious packages.

Skiff: Various Privacy Failures
Disagree, their reputation is tied to their audit quality.
But I'm pretty sure in this case the scope was bad. Like they coukd have had audits on "Do I use OpenSSL well?" and then misrepresent that all their privacy claims were audited.
Now it seems like Skiff conveniently didn't allow Trail of Bits to publish their reports, they are usually here: https://github.com/trailofbits/publications/tree/master/revi...
Disclaimer, I have used Trail of Bits service in the past (and 2 other auditors for an security campaign on a blockchain, cryptography + networking product).

PyPI has completed its first security audit
Link to the report: https://github.com/trailofbits/publications/blob/master/revi...
They seem to not have analysed client-side of PIP itself, but I suppose there isn't anything you could say that isn't already obvious to everyone.

Transparency at Skiff
Hi! I'm Skiff's CEO. We've had 3 security audits, including 2 from Trail of Bits - one of the best security auditing firms in the world https://github.com/trailofbits/publications. Skiff Mail is also open-source: https://github.com/skiff-org/skiff-mail as is our whitepaper https://skiff.com/whitepaper We've also been in the news quite a bit: https://www.theverge.com/2022/5/17/23075804/skiff-mail-email-privacy, https://www.wsj.com/articles/encryption-bans-what-is-this-russia-hacking-online-privacy-security-data-signal-whatsapp-emails-protection-11675436242 (I wrote this with our team!), https://techcrunch.com/2023/01/30/russia-skiff-block/, and more, even though we're only a year old. We collect no personally identifying information - not even IP addresses used - no backup emails, phones, etc. - no advertising, and we end-to-end encrypt BOTH email subject + body and don't have any metadata (time sent/received an exception). What can we do to share more of this with more people? We're a younger company but it's so important this is made public.
