Malicious code in evalstream (PyPI)
What to do
Vendor response not established. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check back for a fix.
This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

There is no evidence of credential or environment scraping, outbound network beacons to attacker-controlled destinations, remote code fetch-and-execute, lifecycle or build-backend code execution with external network I/O, or persistent/backdoor mechanisms. No third-party credentials, registry-redirecting configuration, or dependency-dropper patterns are present.

While they do not contain the malicious payload and the usage remains unknown, they are clearly a coordinated campaign to place multiple deceptive ways to…

# Patch Next advisory brief: mal-2026-18161 Advisory: Malicious code in evalstream (PyPI) IDs: mal-2026-18161 Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/mal-2026-18161 (revision 1, source checked 30 Oct 2026, 06:40 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: Unrated Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor response not established. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - PyPI evalstream: affected >= 0.1.0, <= 0.1.0 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - `python -m pip show evalstream`: prints the installed version. Run with the environment that serves production active. ## Supported action No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on evalstream. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/MAL-2026-18161 (OSV record MAL-2026-18161 lists affected ranges: PyPI evalstream >=0.1.0 <=0.1.0) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
