Cybersecurity experts have raised alarms over a new phishing tool named 'GoIssue' that specifically targets GitHub developers. The tool enables cybercriminals to send bulk phishing emails aimed at stealing credentials and compromising software repositories. This development highlights a growing trend of backdoor attacks within open-source contributions, with experts warning that software supply chain attacks are set to become a significant threat in the technology sector in the coming years.
