Detection & response playbook

Malicious package
  1. Find it

    Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for rails_test-serving (version 0.1.4.2).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    Remove rails_test-serving 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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If rails_test-serving 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.

Detect & block this

O3 blocks rails_test-serving-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the malicious outbound activity and severs the channel.
