A massive supply chain attack targeting the Arch User Repository (AUR) has compromised more than 400 community-maintained packages, with attackers injecting malicious build scripts designed to deploy credential-stealing malware and rootkit-style payloads on affected Linux systems.
I was starting to get too confident in AUR. Thankfully I wasn’t affected. Just replaced all possible AUR packages to their respective Arch and Flatpak alternatives, with exception of very few or from the ones I had no option. But will definitely check before updating them, and will only install AUR packages as a last resort.
