MAL-2026-14337

Malicious code in internment (crates.io)

Details

internment 0.8.7 was published to crates.io from the same maintainer account (droundy) as the trojanized arrayref and append-only-vec releases, which appears to be compromised. The release adds a dependency on an attacker-controlled crate whose build script downloads and executes an architecture-specific remote binary at build time from https://23.254.165.112:9089/, passing 23.254.165.112:443 as a command-and-control address. Part of a coordinated crates.io campaign on 2026-08-20. The malicious release has been removed from crates.io; earlier internment releases are unaffected.
