In pip, multiple configured indexes have equal priority with first-wins on order of configuration (if memory serves); the tiebreaker is the version, so the attacker would need to publish a higher version than the one used internally. Either way, that’s not the attack described in the post, and is speculative to a degree that doesn’t warrant the “0day” descriptor. It’s also not actionable for companies that run entire PyPI mirrors rather than supplementary indexes, which is the norm.
