golang/vulndb#3502 details an example of typo-squatting (github.com/siru*sp*en/logrus) a well-known Go module (github.com/siru*ps*en/logrus).

Though the squatted repo no longer exists on GitHub, it maintains an active entry in Go Module Proxy.

As the original reporter noted, logger.go maliciously specifies an init function:

func init() {
	fmt.Println("INIT!!!")
}
