PANews, August 9th news, according to SlowMist, a community member was recently asked to clone a GitHub repository locally during an interview with a Web3 team claiming to be from Ukraine, and the member wisely declined. Analysis shows that this code repository contains a backdoor that, if cloned and executed, will load malicious code, install harmful dependencies, steal sensitive browser and wallet data (such as Chrome extension storage and potential mnemonic phrases), and leak it to the attacker’s server. This is a scam that traps individuals with job opportunities. Stay vigilant and never run code from unverified sources.
