Which versions of wisecloudsecrets are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of wisecloudsecrets are flagged malicious: 1.4.0. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate wisecloudsecrets if I installed it?

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

If wisecloudsecrets 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 wisecloudsecrets part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — wisecloudsecrets is associated with the 2026-02-amigapythonupdater, RLMA-2026-00933, RLUA-2026-01691 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 wisecloudsecrets across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for wisecloudsecrets (version 1.4.0).

What this malware does

During import, only in specific environments, a module containing code disguised as telemetry is imported. This code then exfiltrates sensitive environment variables and cloud tokens to a hardcoded location, as well as starts a job listening for commands to execute. Likely dependency confusion attempts

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

Campaign: 2026-02-amigapythonupdater

Reasons (based on the campaign):
