Details

Source: kam193 (84f71e430b37d8fe0ee6c72826071159bb146664fe17d9a596f6e611579851f7)

During installation or import, package silently adds a new authorized SSH key. It's closely related to the 2026-05-ninja-core-utils campaign, but there is no built-in crypto exfiltration.

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

Campaign: 2026-05-ninja-ssh-proto

Reasons (based on the campaign):

  • backdoor

  • obfuscation
