Which versions of prof-tg-gdghho-qu are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of prof-tg-gdghho-qu are flagged malicious: 0.0.1. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate prof-tg-gdghho-qu if I installed it?

prof-tg-gdghho-qu 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 prof-tg-gdghho-qu — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If prof-tg-gdghho-qu 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 prof-tg-gdghho-qu part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — prof-tg-gdghho-qu is associated with the 2025-07-prof-quotex 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 prof-tg-gdghho-qu across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for prof-tg-gdghho-qu (version 0.0.1).
