Summary
Malicious code in cubaflixdownload (PyPI)
Details

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

Source: kam193 (e301875480dd0a0265eef6c8d1a5b65ef85f1e2051d0e5491dcb4767c5f7b578)

During importing, the code automatically starts a Telegram bot designed to download and save files locally upon a specific message in the channel. While this seems to have limited harm, this behavior is not disclosed and involved packages have typosquatting-like names. The core code is in the "platforms" package

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

Campaign: 2026-02-old-platforms

Reasons (based on the campaign):

  • other

  • typosquatting

  • The malicious code is intentionally included in a dependency of the package
