Which versions of fastapi-requests are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of fastapi-requests are flagged malicious: 0.0.0, 2.32.5. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate fastapi-requests if I installed it?

fastapi-requests 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.

I already installed fastapi-requests — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If fastapi-requests 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 fastapi-requests part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — fastapi-requests is associated with the 2026-03-fastapi-requests campaign. Packages in the same campaign often share infrastructure and payloads, so check whether any related packages are also in your dependency tree.

How do I find fastapi-requests across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?
