Hi All,

it's got to my mind that PYPA, community, and developers should develop
some mechanism to protect against similar threats.

For example security checkers could be added to the upload flow, before a
package appears, and becomes downloadable.
Compiled parts should be allowed only in source, and security checkers
would check those too, and compile from source and publish package only
after these checks executed and did not found any harmful thing.


BR,
George
