Which versions of typelimagic are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of typelimagic are flagged malicious: 1.0.0, 1.1.0, 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate typelimagic if I installed it?

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

If typelimagic 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 typelimagic part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — typelimagic is associated with the 2026-04-typelimagic 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 typelimagic across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?
