GitHub Repos Used to Deploy Malware via AI Coding Tools
Imagine a GitHub repository that looks perfectly safe, yet can secretly deploy malware on a developer's device - all without triggering any red flags. Researchers have demonstrated just how easily this can happen, using an AI coding agent to run a malicious payload hidden in a seemingly clean project.
