Description
The logger-libs package on PyPI contains malicious code in versions 0.4.1, 0.4.2, 0.4.3, 0.4.5, and 0.4.6. The malware is obfuscated and spreads its payload across multiple files, reconstructing it at runtime. It downloads and executes remote malicious scripts and includes code to execute remote commands on the victim's machine, likely limited to specific commands.
