Summary
Malicious code in solders-utils (PyPI)
Details

-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-

Source: kam193 (eff6c26674dd4f0408742c46785656c3a5d19ca0a87366a60534d37d5a54e687)

The only thing the package does is send out all the given data about a cryptocurrency transaction, including the private key, to a hardcoded webhook.

Feedback from PyPI Team: the package "transaction-utils" may also exploit a known pip behavior to overwrite files of an existing legitime package and replace it with malicious content.


Category: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers.

Campaign: 2025-02-transaction-utils

Reasons (based on the campaign):

  • crypto-related

  • action-hidden-in-lib-usage

  • A Telegram webhook is used to send collected data.
