❕ *Hackers Spread Crypto-Stealing Malware via Fake GitHub Repositories*
Kaspersky warns of GitVenom, a malware campaign targeting developers through fake GitHub projects. The malware steals browsing data, crypto wallet credentials, and clipboard information, redirecting transactions to attacker wallets. One linked address has already received 5 BTC (~$443,000). The attack mainly affects Russia, Brazil, and Turkey. Developers are urged to verify third-party code before use.
