Malicious Fork Distributes Windows Malware Via GitHub

Security researchers report that attackers published a malicious fork of the Triton macOS client on GitHub, distributing a trojanized archive named Software_3.1.zip with SHA-256 39b29c38c03868854fb972e7b18f22c2c76520cfb6edf46ba5a5618f74943eac. The Windows-only payload is promoted via README links to an Xcode asset path and shows 12/66 VirusTotal detections; defenders should validate repository owners and monitor provided IOCs.
