New Fractureiser malware used CurseForge Minecraft mods to infect Windows, Linux

www.bleepingcomputer.com New Fractureiser malware used CurseForge Minecraft mods to infect Windows, Linux

Hackers used the popular Minecraft modding platforms Bukkit and CurseForge to distribute a new 'Fractureiser' information-stealing malware through uploaded modifications and by injecting malicious code into existing projects.

I guess after using the NPM and PyPI repositories to distribute compromised packages, malicious actors have moved to Minecraft plugin/mod repos.

Minecraft mod BOM's when?
