easyaillm2PyPI
Advisory published Updated
easyaillm2 is a confirmed malicious PyPI package (MAL-2026-5765) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious versions 2.0.16, 2.0.17, 2.0.18…). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in easyaillm2 (PyPI)
What this malware does
On pip install easyaillm2, setup.py fetches a raw text body from https://pastebin.com/raw/yBcUM1QB and passes the first line directly to os.system('cmd /c "..."'), executing whatever the mutable, anonymous Pastebin paste currently serves with the installer's privileges. There is no integrity check, no version pinning, and no relationship between the destination and any legitimate publisher. The package itself ships no module code (the source tree contains only egg-info), and its name/description mimic LLM-tooling naming (easyaillm2 / easyllama2) — the install-time Pastebin dropper is the package's only behavior. A Pastebin owner can swap the payload at any moment, turning every future pip install of this version into arbitrary remote code execution on the installer's machine.
During installation, the code attempts to download and start a malicious executable.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for easyaillm2 (5 malicious versions).
If you installed it — respond
easyaillm2 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 easyaillm2 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 easyaillm2-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
