Attackers find new way to share malicious Snap packages |
 |
Alan Pope, a former Ubuntu contributor and current Snap package maintainer, has raised a concern on his blog about attackers sneaking malicious Snap packages into Canonical's package repository. "There's a relentless campaign by scammers to publish malware in the Canonical Snap Store. Some gets caught by automated filters, but plenty slips through. Recently, these miscreants have changed tactics - they're now registering expired domains belonging to legitimate snap publishers, taking over their accounts, and pushing malicious updates to previously trustworthy applications. This is a significant escalation." Details on the attack are covered in Pope's blog post.
