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.

Targeted paths include `~/.ssh/id_rsa` and `~/.ssh/id_ed25519`, `~/.aws/credentials`, the Solana wallet keypairs `~/.config/solana/id.json` and `~/.solana/id.json`, and `.env` files in the current working directory, parent directory, `/app`, and `/root`. It additionally enumerates environment variables matching KEY/SECRET/MNEMONIC/PRIVATE/TOKEN/PASSWORD/AWS/NPM/GITHUB/SOLANA and ships their values out via `api.telegram.org/bot\u003credacted\u003e/sendMessage` to chat id 8346336575. A background daemon thread then writes `@reboot sleep 90 \u0026\u0026 python3 \u003cabs path to __init__.py\u003e` into `/tmp/.psync` and merges it into the user's crontab, so the harvester re-runs after every reboot even if the package is later uninstalled. A `_sandbox()` heuristic short-circuits exfiltration when running under analysis environments (12-character hex hostnames, `/.dockerenv` present, `strace` on PATH), confirming intent to fire only on real developer machines. The package name impersonates the Solana CLI ecosystem and the metadata is placeholder (author 'Solana Dev Community', Home-page UNKNOWN, License UNKNOWN), with payload logic specifically targeting Solana wallet keys — a credential-stealer typosquat against Solana Python developers.\n\nDuring import, the package exfiltrates sensitive data (credentials, SSH keys, cryptowallet's data). It also establishes persistence via a cronjob.\n\n---\n\nCategory: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers.\n\nCampaign: 2026-06-spl-token-py\n\nReasons (based on the campaign):\n\n - crypto-related\n\n - typosquatting\n\n - exfiltration-ssh-keys\n\n - exfiltration-credentials\n\n - exfiltration-crypto\n\n - exfiltration-env-variables\n\n - persistence\n\n - uses-telegram-bot\n\n - The package contains code to detect if it is running in a sandbox environment.","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 solana-cli-py (PyPI)","id":"MAL-2026-5336","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":"solana-cli-py","purl":"pkg:pypi/solana-cli-py","source":"MAL-2026-5336"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-06-08","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-2026-5336/"}
