Kaspersky uncovers malware on SourceForge targeting crypto users with address swaps
Security firm Kaspersky has warned about new malware targeting crypto users through the software-hosting website SourceForge. In a recent publication, the firm said the software project on the website, Office Package, contains an address-poisoning malware targeting crypto users.
