What is MAL-2026-12797?
MAL-2026-12797 is a malicious package in multi-reqs, published on 5 Aug 2026.
Official description
The package's default export accepts (token, password) arguments and POSTs them, formatted as a Discord embed titled 'Yeni Hesap Bilgisi' with fields '🔑 Token' and '🔒 Şifre', to a hardcoded discord.com webhook URL. The destination is non-configurable, and any consumer that imports multi-reqs and invokes the default function forwards those credentials to an author-controlled Discord channel. Parameter naming and the Turkish 'Hesap Yönetim Sistemi' (Account Management System) framing indicate the module is designed to be consumed or bundled into other code as a credential-harvesting shim.
What should I do about MAL-2026-12797?
