Attackers abuse GitHub issues in supply chain campaign hitting 61 repos
Original: Attackers turn GitHub issues into supply chain campaign against 61 public repos
Attackers have weaponised GitHub's issue tracker, spamming malicious content across 61 public repositories in under an hour in what is described as a supply chain campaign. Security coverage points to automated abuse of the platform's collaboration features to push developers toward malicious links or code. The speed and scale of the operation has prompted discussion about trust in open-source infrastructure and how repository owners should filter issue spam.
Why now: The scale and speed of abuse of a core open-source tool raises fresh supply chain security concerns among developers.
