Attackers use public repositories or comments as "dead drop resolvers" to host C2 URLs or configuration files, allowing malware to receive instructions while blending in with normal developer traffic.

– Attackers publish packages to npm, PyPI, or RubyGems that include GitHub links in their install scripts. When a developer runs npm install , the post-install hook downloads and executes malware from a GitHub raw URL.

Attackers fork a reputable project, embed obfuscated malware in the codebase, and push it as a new, seemingly legitimate repository.
