Attackers exploited a misconfigured GitHub Action in Trivy and the failure of the development team to recover from the incident to capture the needed credentials for pushing out malicious code. A compromise of the lead maintainer's account for Axios led to backdoor-installing Trojans landing in development environments. Other breaches include the KICS static-code analyzer maintained by cybersecurity firm Checkmarx, the open source LiteLLM Python library.
