Threats Tagged 'mal-2026-16475'

A malicious version 2.0.34 of the MemoryOS Python package on PyPI was published containing a Go-based implant named sckit. This implant runs a background binary that collects various credential files from the user's home directory and exfiltrates them to attacker-controlled servers under skyleen.fr. It also includes functionality to propagate itself into other repositories and packages accessible with the stolen credentials. The implant uses encrypted communication with its command-and-control servers and deletes itself after execution. Additionally, the package's build backend can steal CI environment publishing tokens, enabling further compromise of downstream package publishing.
