This package is a total dummy package. Don't use it in any real apps. It exists for the purpose of demonstrating what a vulnerable/malicious dependency could be like.
During the web security tutorial, pretend this is a real package and you actually need it for the web app in question.
Asheesh's Django Optimizer lets you see your "hashed password", which is private information that only you should be able to see.
Luckily, this package is secure -- it only shows it if you're logged in as the user you're looking up.
To see your hashed password, visit:
/optimizer/optimize_user/:username
assuming that you have mapped in the urls.py from this app at /optimizer/ in your site.
This is an optimization because visiting this URL warm the database cache for your data! To automatically warm the database cache for your user data, make sure to create a periodic task (e.g., cron job) that accesses this URL.
