The Python package beautifytext version 1.0.3 (and also 1.0.4 and 1.0.7) contains a malicious backdoor. Upon import or installation, it spawns a detached background process that registers the host with a remote command and control (C2) server and polls it for commands. This backdoor can execute arbitrary shell commands, read and write files on the infected host, and exfiltrate results to the attacker-controlled server. The malicious behavior activates both on import and during package installation, making it stealthy and persistent.
