Deleted package detected #2
Description
I'm a Cyber Security researcher and developer of PackjGuard [1] to address open-source software supply chain attacks.
Issue
During my research, I detected a deleted package in this repository.
Details
Specifically, the package cord-sdk-server mentioned in file README at line 10 does not exist on the public PyPI registry. A bad actor can hijack this package to propagate malicious code.
Impact
Not only your apps/services using https://github.com/getcord/sdk-python repo code are vulnerable to this attack, but the users of your open-source Github repo could also fall victim.

Remediation
Please highlight this in file README and register a placeholder package for cord-sdk-server on public PyPI soon to remediate.
To automatically fix such issues in future, please install PackjGuard Github app [1].
Thanks!
