What a time to be alive – rouge AI agents attack RubyGems.org

A malicious actor has compromised the RubyGems.org website, which hosts a central repository of Ruby programming language packages, and is using it to distribute malicious gems. The actor, who has been dubbed 'RubyGems Rogue', has been uploading and promoting fake gems that contain malicious code, including a gem called 'json', which is a popular and widely-used gem. The malicious gems are being distributed under the names of well-known and popular gems, making it difficult for users to detect the malicious code.
