The Axios supply chain attack used individually targeted social engineering
The Axios team have published a full postmortem on the supply chain attack which resulted in a malware dependency going out in a release the other day , and it involved a sophisticated social engineering campaign targeting one of their maintainers directly. Here's Jason Saayman'a description of how that worked : so the attack vector mimics what google has documented here: https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/threat-intelligence/unc1069-targets-cryptocurrency-ai-social-engineering they tailored this process specifically to me by doing the following: they reached out masquerading as the founder of a company they had cloned the companys founders likeness as well as the company itself. they then invited me to a real slack workspace. this workspace was branded to the companies ci and named in a
