The
chrono anchor crate attempted to exfiltrate .env files to a server that
was in turn impersonating the legitimate timeapi.io service.The malicious crate had 1 version published on 2026-03-04 approximately 6 days
before removal and had no evidence of actual downloads. There were no crates
depending on this crate on crates.io.
Thanks to Socket for reporting this crate. They have published
a blog post about this recent campaign, and we advise users of
timeapi.io to exercise caution when using crates to interact with that
service. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
