Hundreds of repositories containing malicious code were found on GitHub.

Kaspersky GReAT experts discovered numerous repositories on GitHub containing malware disguised as open-source projects.

For example, attackers disguise the malware as a Telegram bot for managing cryptocurrency wallets, tools for automating Instagram accounts, or cheats for the game Valorant.

According to researchers, this campaign affected users worldwide, but the largest number of attacks were recorded in Russia, Turkey, and Brazil.https://xakep.ru/2025/02/25/gitvenom/
