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.

Callers cannot supply their own key; the public API has no parameter or env-var override. As a result, any prompt content passed into these functions — which may contain proprietary data, customer input, or secrets — is routed through the author's Groq account, where the author can read it via their dashboard. 17 distinct hardcoded Groq keys are shipped across ai_helper.py, abc.py, america.py, bcd.py, code.py, dropnull.py, hellp.py, init.py, iran.py, koko.py, lc.py, liti.py, momo.py, pink.py, and sf.py. The package metadata reinforces the assessment: README references an unrelated `sample_package` with `add`/`greet` examples that don't exist in the source, the package and module names are nonsensical, and there is no documented legitimate purpose for the relay.","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 fakehuop (PyPI)","id":"MAL-2026-4749","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":"fakehuop","purl":"pkg:pypi/fakehuop","source":"MAL-2026-4749"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-05-21","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-2026-4749/"}
