What does the fef3434334dwrg malware do?

Installing the package starts an infostealer Category: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers. Campaign: 2023-12-fefeefrrg Reasons (based on the campaign): - infostealer - The package overrides the install command in setup.py to execute malicious code during installation. - exfiltration-generic - exfiltration-browser-data - The package contains code to detect if it is running in a sandbox environment.

Which versions of fef3434334dwrg are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of fef3434334dwrg are flagged malicious: 1.0. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate fef3434334dwrg if I installed it?

fef3434334dwrg 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 fef3434334dwrg — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If fef3434334dwrg was ever installed, its post-install/runtime payload may have already executed. O3's L7 egress monitoring and runtime eBPF sensors detect the credential exfiltration or command-and-control callback after install and block the malicious outbound channel, so you catch and contain the actual compromise — not just the presence of the package.

Is fef3434334dwrg part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — fef3434334dwrg is associated with the RLMA-2024-03914, RLUA-2024-08270, 2023-12-fefeefrrg, RLUA-2026-00318 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 fef3434334dwrg across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for fef3434334dwrg (version 1.0). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging fef3434334dwrg across your stack and pipelines.

Audit logs for unauthorized use of those credentials.
Did it already run?
If fef3434334dwrg was ever installed, its post-install/runtime payload may have already executed. O3's L7 egress monitoring and runtime eBPF sensors detect the credential exfiltration or command-and-control callback after install and block the malicious outbound channel, so you catch and contain the actual compromise — not just the presence of the package.
How O3 protects you
O3 blocks fef3434334dwrg before install through its supply-chain scanner, and if it has already run, detects and severs the exfiltration or C2 callback at runtime through L7 egress monitoring and eBPF.
