Which versions of abilityrequests are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of abilityrequests are flagged malicious: 0.0.5, 0.0.6. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate abilityrequests if I installed it?

Remove abilityrequests from your project and lockfile, then assume any secrets accessible to the build or runtime were exposed: rotate API keys, tokens, and credentials, and audit for unexpected outbound activity or persistence.

I already installed abilityrequests — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If abilityrequests was installed, its post-install payload may already have run. Removing the package does not undo that — check outbound connections and credential use from the install window onward.

Is abilityrequests part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — abilityrequests is associated with the RLMA-2025-04106 campaign. Packages in the same campaign often share infrastructure and payloads, so check whether any related packages are also in your dependency tree.
