GMS-2020-223: Malicious Package
(updated )
The package destroyer-of-worlds
contained malicious code. The package contained a bash script that was run as a postinstall script. The script deleted system files and attempted to exhaust resources by creating a large file, a fork bomb and an endless loop. The script targeted UNIX systems. Remove the package from your environment and perform additional incident response on your system’s files and processes.
