Malicious code in turbod (PyPI) Remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.

MAL-2026-6979
Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
pip uninstall turbod

What this malware does

Starting version 1.0.7, the package contains obfuscated code and embedded binary that is executed during the import, sharing many similarities with package oxntime. The embedded seems to act as a guard for further execution, with some sandbox evasion techniques and time-based actions.

Prior to 1.0.7, the package offered obfuscation techniques.

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

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 turbod (8 malicious versions). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging turbod across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    turbod 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 turbod 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 turbod 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.
