⚠️ Arch users have certainly heard of #atomicarch : attackers hijacked orphaned AUR packages, slipping credential-stealing #malware into PKGBUILD post-install hooks. Official repos are safe - only AUR is hit. A community list of compromised packages has since grown to 1935 entries: https://github.com/lenucksi/aur-malware-check

If you installed or updated any AUR package since June 11 2026, cross-check the output of ‘yay -Qm’ against the list. A match means rotate all credentials and investigate 🔎

🚨 Atomic Arch: AUR Malware Audit Tool

The recent "Atomic Arch" campaign compromised over 1,500 AUR packages. If you synced using yay or paru between June 10-12, you might have pulled a Trojan targeting your SSH keys and API tokens.

I’ve built a privacy-focused audit tool to help you check your system.

✅ Privacy First: All processing happens locally in your browser.
✅ Live Data: Fetches the threat list directly from Arch security servers.
✅ No Trackers: Just the tool and the data you need.

Audit your system here:

Stay paranoid.
