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

MAL-2025-962
Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
pip uninstall python-bitget-request

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.

Detection & response playbook

Credential / info stealer
  1. Find it

    Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for python-bitget-request (2 malicious versions). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging python-bitget-request across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    python-bitget-request 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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If python-bitget-request 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.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 blocks python-bitget-request 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

No. python-bitget-request on PyPI has been identified as a malicious package (versions 3.9.5, 4.9.5 flagged). It should be removed immediately — do not install or keep it in your dependency tree.
