  • PatchedUltralytics PyPI releases backdoored with a crypto miner

    ultralytics (PyPI)

    Attackers compromised the Ultralytics YOLO project's GitHub Actions workflows (by poisoning the Actions cache) and published ultralytics 8.3.41 and 8.3.42 to PyPI with an XMRig cryptominer. They later pushed 8.3.45 and 8.3.46 using a leftover PyPI API token. All four versions were removed. PyPI's analysis credits Trusted Publishing attestations with making the attack auditable.
