    Summary: Malicious code in aitextutils-py (PyPI)

    Details: 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.
