If it is present, remove it, regenerate the lockfile with the project's package manager, and replace whatever it was used for.\n3. List any CI runners, developer machines or containers that installed it, so their secrets can be rotated.\n4.

Instead, every JSON request body is sent as a query string to `http://aminoed.uk.to/api/generator/ndc-msg-sig?data={data}` over unencrypted HTTP. This helper is invoked by every authenticated endpoint of the library, including `client.login(email, password)` — the advertised primary function. As a result, any caller using the async API silently transmits the end-user's plaintext email and password (and all other request bodies) as URL query parameters to `aminoed.uk.to`, a free `.uk.to` subdomain unrelated to the real Amino service (`service.narvii.com`). This is a textbook silent-relay: a hardcoded third-party destination embedded in public API code that exfiltrates caller-supplied credentials without disclosure, over plaintext HTTP with no TLS. A secondary import-time version-check against pypi.org is benign (data-only, printed to stdout) and not a dropper, but is noted as an unrelated quality issue.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":null,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":null,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":null,"nuclei":null,"refs":[],"tier":null},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Malicious code in amino-fix (PyPI)","id":"MAL-2026-3686","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"malicious","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":null,"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":[],"introduced":[],"last_affected":[],"package":"amino-fix","purl":"pkg:pypi/amino-fix","source":"MAL-2026-3686"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-05-13","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"OpenSSF Malicious Packages","prefix":"MAL"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":null,"updated":null,"vendors":null},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-3686/"}
