MAL-2026-17809
Malicious code in minecraftaccfinder (PyPI)
Published Oct 12, 2026 · corrected/updated Oct 15, 2026 · evidence confidence medium
minecraftaccfinder was published to PyPI on 2026-10-12 in six versions within 23 minutes (0.1.2 at 01:05 UTC, 2.0.0, 0.3.0, 0.3.1, 0.4.0, 3.0.0 at 01:28 UTC) with no description, author, README or project page. The package consists of one module, minecraftaccfinder/__init__.py (about 87 KB, 88 functions), installed as the console command . When the command runs it reads the saved logins and session cookies of the browser profiles on the machine, collects the machine's public IP address and account identifiers, and posts the collected data to a chat-service webhook hard-coded in the module. Nothing in the package provides the functionality the name suggests. Versions 0.3.0, 0.3.1 and 3.0.0 were analyzed and carry the same module; 3.0.0 differs from 0.3.1 only in the webhook value. 0.1.2 and 2.0.0 have the same size and were published from the same account minutes apart but were not examined individually, and 0.4.0 is a 949-byte placeholder. The project has since been removed from PyPI. --- _-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_ ## Source: kam193 (f519431018ad36a66a7726c8d5ba41ce446a4a6902afdbefbb4de4897eb2f502) During import, the code installs a persistent inforstealer / RAT. The code first exfiltrates multiple credentials (targeting especially Gmail, Roblox, Discord, and Minecraft) and then opens a port and listens for further C2 commands. It also includes a keylogger, periodic screenshot sending, advanced extracting credentials from browsers, and some detection evasion techniques. In multiple versions the code seems not to be fully functional --- Category: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers. Campaign: 2026-10-minecraftaccfinder Reasons (based on the campaign): - infostealer - exfiltration-browser-data - persistence - spyware-like - rat - keylogger - The package contains code to execute remote commands (probably limited to a specific set) on the victim's machine.
Grounded briefings
Catalog interpretations for three audiences. Each brief cites ingested metadata and the original advisories below. They are not independent research and they do not invent exploit steps.
Executive
MAL-2026-17809 is a unknown public vulnerability record for this product. It is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited catalog. Check the linked vendor or CERT advisories for patch status. This summary is a catalog interpretation of the ingested metadata and cites the original advisories below.
System administrator
Identify whether this product is in your estate, then compare installed versions with the affected ranges. Affected packages or ranges on record: minecraftaccfinder (0.1.0, 0.1.1, 0.1.2). Check the linked vendor or CERT advisories for patch status. Prefer the vendor or distribution advisory linked in Sources before changing production systems. This is a catalog interpretation, not a runbook.
Security analyst
