'Hades' Campaign Against PyPI Puts New Spin on Shai-Hulud
The Hades campaign's evolution of Shai-Hulud tactics demonstrates how supply chain attackers adapt existing frameworks rather than developing entirely new attack vectors.
Summary written by editorial AI · Source link below
The latest attacks, which hit 37 PyPI wheels and 19 code packages, show a continued evolution of the persistent software supply chain threat.
