More social engineering attacks on open source projects observed – ComputerWeekly.com

The Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF) and the OpenJS Foundation, which backs multiple JavaScript-based open source software (OSS) projects, have warned that the attempted social engineering observed earlier in April 2024 against the XZ Utils data compression library may not be an isolated incident. The XX Utils attack saw a threat actor known as JiaTan infiltrate the XZ Utils project over a multiple-year period, becoming trusted by the project maintainers and contributing legitimate updates to the software before trying to sneak in a backdoor vulnerability, CVE-2024-3094, which could have caused carnage had it not been for the swift actions of an eagle-eyed researcher. Now, OpenSSF and OpenJS are calling for all open source maintainers to be alert for similar takeover attempts after the OpenJS Cross Project Council received multiple suspicious emails imploring them to update one of its projects to address critical vulnerabilities without citing any specific details
