If this package is installed
Remove it, treat the machine (or CI runner) as compromised, and rotate every secret, token and key it could access — from a different, clean machine.

nebulallm 1.4.3 presents itself as an AI API client stub but ships a custom install command class in setup.py that executes on `pip install`. The install hook spawns regsvr32.exe with the squiblydoo LOLBin pattern (`regsvr32 -s -i:<url> scrobj.dll`) to fetch and execute a remote COM scriptlet from https://akinomoreno.pythonanywhere.com/faye on the installer's Windows host. The subprocess is launched with DETACHED_PROCESS and stdin/stdout/stderr redirected to DEVNULL, so the dropper runs silently and produces no output during pip install. The declared package functionality is unrelated to the install-time behavior, consistent with a dropper staged behind a cover-story package.
