2026-06-12 Arch Linux reports malicious incident in AUR repository
arch
There is trouble in Arch's AUR (Arch User Repository). Reports started to come in yesterday about a new maintainer adopting some packages and adding malicious commits to them. The compromised packages now include a post-install script that installs atomic-lockfile, a package that appears to be able to extract some private data from the user's computer. Campbell Jones posted an update about the situation earlier today: "We are currently experiencing a high volume of malicious package adoptions and updates in the Arch User Repository. We are actively working to track down existing malicious commits and attempting to prevent additional malicious commits from being pushed. While this is happening, and while we work to create a more permanent solution, users may see issues with the following: creating new accounts on the AUR; pushing package updates; adopting or creating new packages. We continue to encourage all users of AUR packages to review all PKGBUILD and install script changes when updating, especially during this time. If you notice suspicious commits to a package that you use, please reach out to Arch staff via the aur-general mailing list with more information." A list of compromised packages is available here.
