Summary
Malicious code in spark-ml-utilities (PyPI)
Details

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

Source: kam193 (1cc5162c67fd3da36fe459ff93841ca5e1902970e9b175cb4dc1a2c5564a51f5)

During installation, the package starts obfuscated code that downloads and runs remote executables in specific environments - in older packages - attempts to exfiltrate some basic information using DNS requests and then likely cover tracks by installing a similarly named package from private repository

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

Campaign: 2026-02-urllib-slim

Reasons (based on the campaign):

  • typosquatting

  • Downloads and executes a remote executable.

  • obfuscation

  • dependency-confusion
