LiteLLM supply chain attack distributes credential-stealing malware

Attackers compromised LiteLLM's release pipeline, publishing a trojanized version (1.107.0) to PyPI and Docker registries that installed an infostealer and remote access trojan capable of harvesting cloud, browser, and AI provider credentials. The malicious package was pulled within hours but anyone who ran it is assumed to have had secrets stolen.

Occurred 21 October 2026 · Disclosed 21 October 2026 · Record updated 21 October 2026

Impact

Malicious package harvested browser credentials, AWS/GCP/Azure cloud credentials, LLM provider API keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere), SSH/GPG keys and shell history from systems that ran the compromised version; data was exfiltrated to an attacker-controlled domain.
