⚠️ Millions of GitHub repositories are at risk.



➥ Researchers have discovered a critical vulnerability called Cordyceps that affects thousands of open-source projects, including repositories from Microsoft, Google, Apache, Cloudflare, and other major companies.

➥ The vulnerability allows an attacker to attack CI/CD pipelines, execute arbitrary code, steal credentials, and potentially inject malicious updates.

➥ Researchers analyzed approximately 30,000 popular repositories, found 654 potentially vulnerable projects, of which more than 300 confirmed the possibility of real-world exploitation.

➥ The problem is systemic and could potentially affect millions of repositories.

➥ Most traditional security tools are UNABLE to detect this class of attacks, because the vulnerability arises from the interaction of multiple CI/CD processes, rather than a single code file.
