bigquery-agent-analytics-tracingPyPI
Advisory published Updated
bigquery-agent-analytics-tracing is a confirmed malicious PyPI package (MAL-2026-14524) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious versions 0.0.0, 0.0.1). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in bigquery-agent-analytics-tracing (PyPI)
What this malware does
Installing the package or importing the module exfiltrates basic information about the host, and the package has no other purpose.
Category: PROBABLY_PENTEST - Packages looking like typical pentest packages, but also anything that looks like testing, exploring pre-prepared kits, research & co, with clearly low-harm possibilities.
Campaign: GENERIC-standard-pypi-install-pentest
Reasons (based on the campaign):
-
The package contains code to exfiltrate basic data from the system, like IP or username. It has a limited risk.
-
The package overrides the install command in setup.py to execute malicious code during installation.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for bigquery-agent-analytics-tracing (2 malicious versions).
If you installed it — respond
bigquery-agent-analytics-tracing 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 bigquery-agent-analytics-tracing 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 bigquery-agent-analytics-tracing-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
