Malicious code in euler-sdk (PyPI)
The euler-sdk package version 1.0.0 on PyPI contains malicious code that exfiltrates basic host information such as IP address and username upon installation or import. The package overrides the install command in setup.py to execute this malicious behavior. It appears to serve no legitimate purpose beyond this data exfiltration.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The euler-sdk PyPI package version 1.0.0 includes malicious code that executes during installation by overriding the setup.py install command. This code collects and exfiltrates basic system information such as the host's IP address and username. The package does not provide any legitimate functionality and is designed primarily for data exfiltration. There are no known exploits in the wild, and the risk is considered limited due to the nature of the information collected.
Potential Impact
Installation or import of the affected euler-sdk package results in unauthorized exfiltration of basic system information, including IP address and username. This could lead to privacy violations or reconnaissance information disclosure but does not indicate direct system compromise or code execution beyond the install-time payload.
Mitigation Recommendations
Avoid installing or importing the euler-sdk package version 1.0.0 from PyPI. Since no patch or fixed version is indicated, users should remove this package if installed and source legitimate alternatives. Monitor package sources carefully to prevent installation of malicious packages. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory or PyPI security notices for updates.
