What this malware does

Package is a typosquatting or dependency confusion attempt with a low-harm local-only action, like leaving a flag file.

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: GENERIC-local-typosquatting

Reasons (based on the campaign):

  • dependency-confusion

  • The package overrides the install command in setup.py to execute malicious code during installation.

  • typosquatting

The OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified 'oraceldb' @ 1.0.0 (pypi) as malicious.

It is considered malicious because:

  • The package executes one or more commands associated with malicious behavior.

Detection & response playbook

Typosquat
  1. Find it

    Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for oraceldb (version 1.0.0).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    oraceldb is a typosquat — you almost certainly intended a legitimately-named package. Remove oraceldb, install the correct package, and rotate any secrets exposed during the install since post-install scripts may have already run.

  3. Did it already run?

    If oraceldb 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.

Frequently asked questions

No. oraceldb on PyPI has been identified as a malicious package (version 1.0.0 flagged). It should be removed immediately — do not install or keep it in your dependency tree.

Detect & block this

O3 blocks oraceldb-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the malicious outbound activity and severs the channel.
