Published on July 17, 2026, the notice describes a malware check in uv: setting UV_MALWARE_CHECK=1 makes the tool query the OSV database before installing packages from a remote registry. Packages reported as malware are blocked.

The change adds a check before installation and applies to packages from remote registries. To confirm the behavior and scope, consult the original notice and the uv and OSV documentation.
