## Affected packages

- `internment` (crates.io): affected `>=0.8.7-0`; no fixed version yet

## Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

> The internment crate version 0.8.7 and later was published with a direct dependency on a malicious package, proc-macro1, whose build script would execute malicious code. An attacker did not need any special access beyond the ability to install this crate, since the build script runs during compilation. The compromised version was removed from crates.io about 90 minutes after publication, and no fixed version is listed, so users should avoid version 0.8.7 and treat any system that built it as potentially compromised.

## Check whether this affects you

A Match means an installed version is in the affected range above. Most don’t affect the app; agentprime hasn’t analysed this one yet.

- With the agentprime MCP server (<https://api.agentprime.io/mcp>), ask your agent to check the project: `check_lockfile` sends a lockfile, `check_packages` a list of installed packages, and both return the Matches and the upgrades that clear them. `get_advisory` returns this record. Setup: <https://agentprime.io/mcp.md>
- In a browser: <https://agentprime.io/check/> reads your lockfile in the browser, never uploading it.
- Whether it touches your code, with file and line: the Claude Code plugin, <https://agentprime.io/plugin.md>
- As JSON: <https://api.agentprime.io/v1/advisories/RUSTSEC-2026-0266>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
