Cybercriminals are abusing Stack Overflow in an interesting approach to spreading malware—answering users' questions by promoting a malicious PyPi package that installs Windows information-stealing malware.

    StackOverflow has been going down the shitter for years. Waging war against their users, pushing AI to answer questions, pissing off professional developers who no longer feel a reason to answer coding questions.

    So Malware authors sneaking in and posting vulnerabilities and gaming the system is absolutely going to be expected. Then AI regurgitating those answers with no experts available to call out the problem before it’s too late.

    Welp, job security. Good luck!
