Which versions of foop are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of foop are flagged malicious: 60.0.0. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate foop if I installed it?

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

If foop 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 foop part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — foop is associated with the RLMA-2025-00466, 2024-12- sajansubedi, RLUA-2026-00331 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 foop across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for foop (version 60.0.0).

pip uninstall foop

What this malware does

The package looks like a beginning for a further work. In fact, the uploader has shortly published a few similar packages appearing to be e.g. an integration for a known application, but containing only a "telemetry" module exfiltrating basic info about the user. This package has no other purpose than collecting data about users. In addition, it appears to be largely generated by an LLM.

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: 2024-12- sajansubedi

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.
