    Details: Source: kam193 (773fd03a72216bd0bb09449cddd181ae90da5d456b572592cd493bac39f356f4) During import, the package automatically downloads and executes code that first acts as an infostealer and then starts code acting as a RAT. It connects with a hardcoded C2 server and waits for commands, supporting e.g. executing remote commands, exfiltrating files, recording the screen, executing GUI actions through PyAutoGUI. Category: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers. Campaign: 2026-04-process-support Reasons (based on the campaign): - exfiltration-generic - The package contains code to execute remote commands (probably limited to a specific set) on the victim's machine. - rat - spyware-like - infostealer - persistence - exfiltration-browser-data - exfiltration-crypto - files-exfiltration
