In the meantime, builders have a brand new headache: a worm dubbed “Shai Hulud” has wriggled its approach by greater than 180 npm packages, quietly stealing secrets and techniques.

However it’s not all doom and gloom – except you depend your kitchen home equipment turning into advert billboards.

All this and extra is mentioned in episode 436 of the award-winning “Smashing Safety” podcast with cybersecurity veteran Graham Cluley, and his particular visitor Zoë Rose.
