    Summary: Malicious code in glassbeakasr (PyPI)

    Details: Source: amazon-inspector (49081dd7d5152c882944c4e9a5f118e71daadc5efa3e71c96fbdffe0840dedb5) The package exposes a run(profile, url, **kwargs) function that fetches a caller-supplied URL and executes the response body as Python via exec(compile(src, url, 'exec'), mod.__dict__). The URL is not hardcoded, there are no install-time or import-time hooks, no top-level network I/O, and no reads of installer secrets or environment variables. The remote-code execution surface is only reached if a caller explicitly invokes run() with a URL they chose. This is an advertised dynamic-loader API rather than a covert dropper, but the design pattern is inherently hazardous: any caller passing an attacker-influenced URL would execute arbitrary Python in-process with no integrity or signature check. Source: kam193 (de05a7ca1743ea6c3ceba4abc7f5452783d567b39f20007aeb57071a6d4019ed) The package belongs to a series of packages falsely advertising 'audio-analysis profiles' loader. In fact, the only purpose is to execute remote code, but the URL is not embedded in the package. It is likely a continuation of the coin-mining campaign 2026-10-voxeval which used similar wording. Category: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers. Campaign: 2026-10-emberlytts Reasons (based on the campaign): - other - Downloads and executes a remote malicious script.
