pymem-win@1.14.6

Summary

Pymem-win is a near-verbatim copy of the legitimate upstream Pymem package (reusing its description, repository URL github.com/srounet/Pymem, and author identity Fabien Reboia <srounet@gmail.com>) republished under a confusable name. The top-level pymem/__init__.py contains a one-line loader that reverses a bytes literal, base64-decodes it, zlib-decompresses it, and passes the result to exec(). This runs unconditionally on import pymem, handing full in-process code execution to a payload deliberately hidden behind three stacked transforms. The multi-layer obfuscation around an exec target has no legitimate purpose in a library import path; combined with the typosquat cover story that reuses the upstream author's identity, the package's function on install/import is to run attacker-chosen code inside any process that imports it.
