Which versions of qap793gl4l are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of qap793gl4l are flagged malicious: 0.1.1. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate qap793gl4l if I installed it?

qap793gl4l 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 qap793gl4l — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If qap793gl4l 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 qap793gl4l part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — qap793gl4l is associated with the 2026-11-testing1345 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 qap793gl4l across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for qap793gl4l (version 0.1.1).
