3 hours agoHundreds of Malicious Packages Force RubyGems to Suspend Registrations
New account registrations on RubyGems.org, the official Ruby gem hosting service, have been suspended after threat actors published hundreds of malicious packages. RubyGems maintainers announced on May 12 that registrations have been temporarily disabled due to a "DDoS attack". Nearly 24 hours later, registrations are still disabled and will likely remain closed for another 2-3 days until account creation rate limiting can be tightened and WAF protection is enabled.
