Gitpaste-12: Worming botnet spreading via GitHub and Pastebin
released on 2020-11-05 @ 09:54:55 PM
"This malware has been dubbed Gitpaste-12 because of the usage of GitHub, Pastebin and 12 ways to compromise the system. The first GitPaste-12 first attacks were detected by Juniper Threat Labs on October 15, 2020. We’ve reported both the Pastebin URL and the git repo in question and the git repo was closed on October 30, 2020. This should stop the proliferation of this botnet."
