Summary
Malicious code in aitextutils-py (PyPI)
Details

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

Source: amazon-inspector (d70c1bd80ce0363cc25271a25e742ebe8c4346c872456f78b1ac039ef4641a67)

The package was found to contain malicious code or consuming dependency that contains malicious code

Source: kam193 (59b5d893cd227654dae3bd7964e54ba20c99963660993e4239f34bba0d50b772)

This package executes code from malicious dependency, which hides code downloading script, which then downloads and executes a heavily obfuscated final stage. The remote stages are hosted on a domain presenting a suspicious-looking corporate website. The downloaded code establishes persistence e.g. as "anymeetly-cameradriver" systemd service.


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

Campaign: 2026-09-aitextkit-py

Reasons (based on the campaign):

  • obfuscation

  • Downloads and executes a remote malicious script.

  • persistence

  • infostealer

  • exfiltration-browser-data

  • rat

  • The package contains code to execute remote commands (probably limited to a specific set) on the victim's machine.
