GitHub Investigating TeamPCP Claimed Breach of ~4,000 Internal Repositories
GitHub said it is investigating unauthorized access to its internal repositories after TeamPCP listed its source code and internal organizations for sale, while also confirming a compromised employee device tied to a poisoned Visual Studio Code extension. The same threat actor is expanding the Mini Shai-Hulud campaign through the compromised durabletask PyPI package, which delivers a Linux-focused infostealer and worm-like propagation across cloud and developer environments. #GitHub #TeamPCP #MiniShaiHulud #durabletask #VisualStudioCode
