MAL-2026-14332
Malicious code in aovine (crates.io)
Details
aovine is a malicious crate published to crates.io as part of the coordinated build-time payload campaign on 2026-08-20 that trojanized arrayref, internment, and append-only-vec and published the proc-macro1 typosquat of proc-macro2. It was used as an attacker-controlled dependency carrying a build-script payload; building it results in the download and execution of a remote binary from https://23.254.165.112:9089/ with 23.254.165.112:443 as command and control. All versions have been removed from crates.io. The individual build script of this crate was not analyzed directly; its behavior is attributed from the campaign.
