3.9   Mike Fiedler

• Malware Response
  • March had over 150 malware reports inbound, some led to deeper investigations, uncovering larger campaigns, leveraging multiple users, projects, dependencies, to execute multi-stage attacks while attempting to avoid detection. While some of these have been reported to GitHub Security, the repositories remain active until GitHub gets around to handling them.
  • Mike also discovered a campaign inflating dependency counts to defraud tea.xyz, and removed over 2,000 projects from PyPI that were created as part of this campaign and ~300 other projects removed throughout the month.
  • As part of other analyses, Mike blocked more disposable/suspicious domain names that were used to register new accounts.
• Typosquatting Detection
  • The first iteration of typosquatting detection is now live on PyPI. It generates admin-only notifications when new projects are created that appear in the checks. This works by generating a corpus of the top 10,000 most dependent on projects within PyPI, and then checking for new projects that are too similar. This is not blocking yet, as it is still relatively noisy, and has already led to at least two new detections of bad behavior. The efforts here also introduced a new query results caching service, which can be used for other performance-critical endpoints if needed.
• Community Engagement
  • Worked with Seth on handling GHSA-wmxh-pxcx-9w24 which helped downgrade the severity of the issue to Low.
  • Participated in OpenSSF Securing Software Repositories working group meeting, as well as Alpha Omega intro meeting on the OSCSE idea.
  • Mike prepared and gave a presentation for Monki Gras 2025 in London on Sustainability of Open Source via volunteering, supported by AWS Open Source.
• Other Items
  • Improved performance for a legacy XMLRPC API endpoint by ~20%
  • Identified a performance regression in another endpoint and discussed how to mitigate with other PyPI admins.
  • Identified a legacy data quality issue
  • Published a historical advisory for pygments-style-solarized
  • Mike was on PTO for a few days at the end of March, and expects to be PTO for a week in April
