I work with security researchers, so we've been on this since about an hour ago. One pain I've really come to feel is the complexity of Python environments. They've always been a pain, but in an incident like this, where you need to find whether an exact version of a package has ever been installed on your machine. All I can say is good luck.

The Python ecosystem provides too many nooks and crannies for malware to hide in.
