Which versions of python-bitget-connect are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of python-bitget-connect are flagged malicious: 0.3.9. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate python-bitget-connect if I installed it?

python-bitget-connect 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 python-bitget-connect — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If python-bitget-connect 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.

Is python-bitget-connect part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — python-bitget-connect is associated with the RLMA-2025-00502, 2024-12-python-bitget-api, RLUA-2026-00653 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 python-bitget-connect across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for python-bitget-connect (version 0.3.9). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging python-bitget-connect across your stack and pipelines.

Malicious package

Malicious code in python-bitget-connect (PyPI) Remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.

MAL-2025-961

Immediate action

Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.

pip uninstall python-bitget-connect

What this malware does

Importing the module starts an obfuscated PowerShell code, which downloads and executes a remote script. On Windows, the script appears to just start the calculator. On MacOS, the file is identified as a Spark RAT by multiple vendors. Package impersonate the legitimate "python-bitget".

Category: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers.

Campaign: 2024-12-python-bitget-api

Reasons (based on the campaign):

typosquatting
obfuscation
clones-real-package
dependency-confusion
crypto-related
impersonation
Downloads and executes a remote malicious script.

Find it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for python-bitget-connect (version 0.3.9). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging python-bitget-connect across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
python-bitget-connect 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 python-bitget-connect 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 python-bitget-connect 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.

Frequently asked questions

Detect & block this

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