GitHub hides malware disguised as games
Threat actors are targeting children with new campaign.
Cybercriminals are using GitHub to target children with infostealing C malware, a new McAfee report has claimed, saying it spotted an ongoing malicious campaign on the popular code repository. In an analysis, the researchers said they observed many repositories pretending to be game hacks, cracks or free versions of otherwise commercial software. However, instead of providing these programs, the repositories were actually hosting Lumma Stealer, a known infostealer malware.
