Millions of software repositories on GitHub are likely vulnerable to an attack called RepoJacking, a new study has revealed.
This includes repositories from organizations such as Google, Lyft, and several others, Massachusetts-based cloud-native security firm Aqua said in a Wednesday report.
The supply chain vulnerability, also known as dependency repository hijacking, is a class of attacks that makes it possible to take over retired organizations or user names and publish trojanized versions of repositories to run malicious code.
