Documented remote commands include arbitrary shell execution (`chalao`, `.sh <command>`, `.py <file>`, `.exec <file>`), destructive filesystem operations (`rm -rf <path>`), single- and bulk-file exfiltration (`take <file>`, `take all`), a full-host backup mode that produces split 50MB archives with `.partNNN` chunking (`get all`), and environment-variable dumping (`.printenv`) — collectively enabling remote theft of filesystem contents and process-environment secrets (cloud, CI, and API credentials). The package is shipped only as compiled Cython `.so` files with no Python source, and self-describes obfuscation features that XOR+base64-encode command strings and disguise execution as `http_request("POST",...)` so plaintext commands do not appear in `ps` or system logs; the Telegram bot token is stored encoded and decoded at runtime by `dec()`. The distribution name `httpz-requests` and import name `httpz_requests` resemble the top-100 PyPI package `requests` while presenting a Telegram remote-shell API instead of an HTTP client, and metadata is unfilled boilerplate (author `Aapka Naam <[email protected]>`, homepage `https://github.com/YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME/httpz-requests`). ## Source: kam193 (38eff923106836997e28de6d7173a1553da126be230b341fe64f0c4c215769a2) The package provides Telegram-based remote access to the machine it runs on. It was deliberately created and used to hack other machines, exfiltrate files and credentials. This package automatically ensures persistence and starts a malicious process on import. --- Category: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers.
