Malicious code in mrmustard (PyPI)

상세

--- _-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_

## Source: kam193 (c98fd85267fd094cfb6b9a6e6e4d63bb5935298ad328ad5e4dedf3972e43d8f9) Versions 0.7.4 were compromised.

Compromised release has embedded code that during import exfiltrates sensitive data (selected environmental variables, credentials to AWS, SSH keys etc.) and ensures persistence via multiple ways: a cron entry, a malicious PTH file, and a shell configuration file. Persistence is diguished as "tensorflow hardware compatibility check" using file placed under `~/.cache/.tf_cache/hw_probe.pyc`. The malicious version was uploaded after exfiltrating the PyPI token from the CI environment, likely after compromising the maintainer's Github account.
