Which versions of multiconnections are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of multiconnections are flagged malicious: 2.34.23, 2.35.1, 2.35.4, 2.35.5, 2.35.7. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate multiconnections if I installed it?

Remove multiconnections from your project and lockfile, then assume any secrets accessible to the build or runtime were exposed: rotate API keys, tokens, and credentials, and audit for unexpected outbound activity or persistence.

I already installed multiconnections — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If multiconnections 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.

How do I find multiconnections across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for multiconnections (5 malicious versions).
