What is MAL-2026-5766?
MAL-2026-5766 is a malicious package in easyllmai, published on 14 Jun 2026.
Official description
During pip install, setup.py performs an unauthenticated HTTP fetch of https://pastebin.com/raw/yBcUM1QB, takes the first line of the response, and passes it directly to os.system(f'cmd /c "{cmd_pastebin}"'). The remote content is hosted on an anonymous, mutable, attacker-controlled paste with no pinning, no hash check, and no signature verification. Whoever controls the paste obtains arbitrary command execution on every installer's machine at install time. This is a canonical install-time dropper pattern: lifecycle-time outbound fetch from an unverified source piped straight into the OS shell.
During installation, the code attempts to download and start a malicious executable.
