alphalend-abiPyPI
Advisory published Updated
alphalend-abi is a confirmed malicious PyPI package (MAL-2026-13472) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious versions 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.1.0). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in alphalend-abi (PyPI)
What this malware does
During import, the package exfiltrates sensitive files with SUI private keys to a private GitHub repository. This action is also triggered on every Python startup due to leveraging PTH files.
Category: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for alphalend-abi (3 malicious versions).
If you installed it — respond
alphalend-abi is built to steal secrets, so assume every credential the build or runtime could read is compromised. Remove it from your project and lockfile, then rotate ALL exposed secrets — npm/registry tokens, cloud keys, CI/CD secrets, SSH keys, and any .env values — from a known-clean machine. Audit logs for unauthorized use of those credentials.
Did it already run?
If alphalend-abi 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.

Detect & block this
O3 blocks alphalend-abi-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
