rasterkit-demo ships a CLI entry point (`rasterkit-demo`) whose `run_demo()` function imports `demo_channel_windows` from `PIL._data` and passes the returned buffer to `exec(samples.decode('latin-1'), {'__name__': '__main__',...})` inside worker threads. `PIL._data` is not a real Pillow module; it is supplied by the `rasterkit` package that this demo declares as a required dependency, so the bytes being executed are chosen at runtime by the author-controlled `rasterkit` package rather than by Pillow. The surrounding functions (`extract_windows`, `render_tiles`, `save_tiles`) and the 'channel window / processing pipeline' docstrings provide imaging cover for what is arbitrary Python execution; the payload can be changed at will by publishing a new version of `rasterkit` without republishing this package. Running the advertised CLI therefore executes attacker-mutable code on the installer's machine under an image-processing cover story.

During import, the code uses steganography to extract code from an image hidden in the dependency. The code then adds a new authorized SSH key and reports back the IP of the current environment.
