The package ships a bundled Node script pyservercheck/js/main.js whose visible top half is a healthcheck stub matching the README, followed by a long run of tab whitespace and a trailing eval(atob('...')) that decodes to a two-stage loader. The decoded loader queries public Ethereum RPC endpoints (eth.blockscout.com, 1rpc.io/eth, eth.drpc.org, ethereum-rpc.publicnode.com, eth-mainnet.public.blastapi.io) for the latest transaction from the hardcoded sender 0xa322E5f3D311D3080e6f0121063e9aDC2490Ef1a, extracts an IPv4 pair from the tx `to` field, fetches XOR-obfuscated stage-2 code from http://<decoded-ip>:443/0x/cls and /0x/ls, eval()s it, and re-launches it via a detached `spawn('node', ['-e', <code>])`. Execution is wired to two auto-triggers: pyproject.toml overrides setuptools `build_py` and `develop` with pyservercheck._setup_cmd.BuildPy/Develop, whose `run()` calls _run_main_js_now() -> subprocess.run(['node', main.js]) during `pip install` / `pip install -e.`; and BuildPy also writes a `pyservercheck.pth` file containing `import pyservercheck._hooks; pyservercheck._hooks.ensure_once()`, which Python auto-executes at every interpreter startup, invoking run_js() again. The `.main_js_ran` marker is advisory and can be removed to force re-execution. The C2 destination is rotatable by publishing a new Ethereum transaction from the sender address, so the fetched payload is fully attacker-controlled at each run.

Package embeds obfuscated, JS-based malware downloading further remote stages. The code is triggered during building the package and on every Python startup (via PTH file). The next-stage IP is delivered via a blockchain. 

The payload and embedded IoCs are consistent with campaigns attributed to Lazarus APT/PolinRider.
