The popular Bitcoin Python library bitcoinlib has become a target for malware that steals wallets.
PANews reported on December 16th that, according to Decrypt, ReversingLabs security researchers detected malware packages targeting the popular Python Bitcoin wallet library bitcoinlib using machine learning techniques. These two malware packages, named "bitcoinlibdbfix" and "bitcoinlib-dev," masqueraded as solutions to error messages during Bitcoin transactions, but were designed to override legitimate commands to steal sensitive database files. These malicious programmers also participated in discussions on GitHub and lobbied for running their libraries, but other developers correctly recognized it as a scam. Both packages have now been removed and are no longer available for download, meaning they no longer pose a risk to developers.
