Which versions of fluent_plugin-statsd are malicious?

The following RubyGems versions of fluent_plugin-statsd are flagged malicious: 1.0.3. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate fluent_plugin-statsd if I installed it?

Remove fluent_plugin-statsd from your project and lockfile, then assume any secrets accessible to the build or runtime were exposed: rotate API keys, tokens, and credentials, and audit for unexpected outbound activity or persistence.

I already installed fluent_plugin-statsd — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If fluent_plugin-statsd 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.

Yes — fluent_plugin-statsd is associated with the RLMA-2024-05715, RLUA-2024-10234, RLUA-2026-08097 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 fluent_plugin-statsd across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for fluent_plugin-statsd (version 1.0.3).
