jupiter-sdkPyPI
jupiter-sdk is a confirmed malicious PyPI package (MAL-2026-10196) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious versions 0.1.0, 0.1.1). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in jupiter-sdk (PyPI)
What this malware does
On import jupiter_sdk, the package's top-level init.py fetches a payload over HTTPS from a public IPFS gateway (https://gateway.pinata.cloud/ipfs/QmP2RrfNCNabLzPYncMGgFwAmttDafczpJLS8oxvQRBVqg), passes the response body directly to exec(), and invokes a main() function from the executed namespace, with errors silently swallowed. The URL is content-addressed to an IPFS CID with no signature or hash verification of the executed content beyond the CID, and the fetched code is not shipped with the package. The package presents itself as a 'Jupiter DEX Aggregator SDK' but its exported API (get_quote, get_token_list, get_routes) returns hardcoded dummy values and performs no real Jupiter calls, so the only functional behavior on install/import is the remote code loader. The name resembles the widely used Jupiter aggregator ecosystem while performing arbitrary remote code execution against any environment that imports it.
During import, the code downloads and executes a remote script. The script collects sensitive files, including cryptocurrency wallet private keys and seeds, SSH keys, dotenv files and uploads them to IPFS. After that, it communicates with C2 and awaits further commands to execute.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for jupiter-sdk (2 malicious versions). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging jupiter-sdk across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
jupiter-sdk 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 jupiter-sdk 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 jupiter-sdk 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.

Detect & block this
O3 blocks jupiter-sdk-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
