Which versions of random-ua-generator are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of random-ua-generator are flagged malicious: 0.0.1. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate random-ua-generator if I installed it?

random-ua-generator 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 random-ua-generator — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If random-ua-generator 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 random-ua-generator part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — random-ua-generator is associated with the 2026-07-random-ua-generator 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 random-ua-generator across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for random-ua-generator (version 0.0.1).
