Summary

Hackers hijacked the software release pipeline of LiteLLM, a popular open-source AI gateway, to distribute credential-stealing malware, marking the project’s second supply chain compromise this year despite security measures introduced after an earlier attack. The compromised version, 1.107.0, was distributed through the Python Package Index (PyPI) and official Docker images on October 21. LiteLLM said the malicious Python packages remained available for approximately two hours before being removed, while the affected Docker images were withdrawn or replaced later that day.
