Popular Library on github got hacked

[Rakete]

I think, this might be relevant for the modding community.

Some very popular coding librarys on github got hacked. I don't know if this is relevsnt for KSP modding and writing plugins, but if so, I think you should be informed. See the link below.

 

Since I am not a programmer or modder, I can't tell if this is relevant for you as a modder, but it might be worth checking if your software builds are affected e.g. if you pull ressources automaticly into your projects.

 

If it is a relevant topic for you, maybe a moderator could pin this. Otherwise just ignore my posting, since I can't tell if the referenced librarys are used in all your fantastic plugins to KSP and your other private dev projects.

Fortunately, this is not relevant for KSP modding. NPM is for Javascript, and KSP mods are written in C#.

Alright... good to know.

But maybe this info is relevant for your non-KSP projects...
