Description
The orchestril package version 0.1.0 on PyPI is part of a malicious campaign involving loader packages that execute code from remote URLs. While the package itself does not contain a direct malicious payload or installer-side harm, it is designed to download and run remote malicious scripts, indicating clear malicious intent. No evidence of installer credential theft or persistent backdoors was found in this specific version.
