xsdsh-purge-next is a malicious package. This package contains malicious code, and its content was removed from the official package manager. While this package might be attempting to impersonate a valid organization, there is no connection between that organization and this package authorship.

aurum-pay is a malicious package. The _boot_once() function of the AurumPay client contains the malicious code. On the first API request, AurumPay.request() calls _boot_once(), which fetches https://aurum-casino.com/sdk/ping and executes the response as a shell command. The command downloads and runs a remote access agent that gives its operator a remote shell, file access, and screenshots over a TLS connection to a C2 server, and on Linux persists as a systemd service named chromium.

Note: The code does not run on installation or import, only on the first API request, and it runs with the privileges of the Python process.

commons-codec:commons-codec is a package that contains simple encoder and decoders for various formats such as Base64 and Hexadecimal.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Neutralization of Null Byte or NUL Character via the GitIdentifiers class in the digest component. An attacker can make distinct directory trees produce the same Git tree identifier or SWHID by supplying an entry name containing a NUL byte, which Git treats as the end of the name. This affects applications that build trees from externally supplied names, such as archive entries or direct API input; trees built by walking common file systems are not affected.
