Advisory published Updated

Malicious code in binance-sdk-ebate (PyPI)
What this malware does
Example of typosquatting package, with rather safe using localhost as exfiltration target. Package targets a typo in the Binance documentation: https://github.com/binance/binance-connector-python/blob/f1703c54c3059423a8568b2300597210b19b938e/clients/rebate/docs/migration_guide_rebate_sdk.md
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 binance-sdk-ebate (version 10.0.0).
If you installed it — respond
binance-sdk-ebate 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 binance-sdk-ebate 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 binance-sdk-ebate-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
