"A GitHub search reveals that at least 392 GitHub repositories have been ransomed, so far."
That is a lot of pwned repos.
I wonder why GitHub hasn't sorted this out yet.
- ccnafr 7y agoSearch results don't include private repos. Wonder how many of those got hit. Lots of security people will be up tonight reviewing logs.
- bifrost 7y agoGood point, we have no idea how many private repos have been compromised and I assume people won't come forward either. The messed up part is that the repos are probably worth waaaay more than the ransom, especially if the companies are making money. I wonder how many security people will be walking out the door TBH.
