Free Download Manager site redirected Linux users to malware for years
A reported Free Download Manager supply chain attack redirected Linux users to a malicious Debian package repository that installed information-stealing malware.
The malware used in this campaign establishes a reverse shell to a C2 server and installs a Bash stealer that collects user data and account credentials.
Kaspersky discovered the potential supply chain compromise case while investigating suspicious domains, finding that the campaign has been underway for over three years.

How is it possible that users noticed strange behaviors (new Cron jobs) and they didn't check the script launched by those jobs 😱
Linux popularity going up means the percentage of users who know what cron is goes down.
Is Disney finally making Tron sequel?
No it’s a disease that makes you poop a lot
No that's Crohn's, cron is a type of headwear for monarchs
No, thats a crown.
A cron is a type of super virus that wants to destroy the entire net. An end to all things.. Total crash. Only another virus superpowered by core energy can put a stop to it.
No that is a Cron-virus of the show ReBoot that lasted from 1994-2001.
Cron is just an other word for hag.
No that's a crone.
To cron is to sing romantic style of pop music.
No, I’m Jamaican, and BTW I use Arch, Mon
They actually are, kind of. It's called Tron: Ares and it's been in production hell for some years, the most recent delay being due to the ongoing writer's strike. Filming is expected to start after the strike is over, but personally my enthusiasm for the movie died after they announced Jared Leto as one of the cast.
If they were complaining about cronjobs being created (like the post says), then they must have known what cron is.
Idk if I'd check crontab regularly.
If I noticed strange cron jobs I would!
