Risky Bulletin: RubyGems adds dependency cooldowns to counter supply chain attacks

RubyGems implemented a dependency-cooldown feature to reduce supply chain attack risks. The bulletin also covers allegations that AT&T and IBM concealed foreign intrusions, a Cisco SD-WAN zero-day vulnerability, and Google layoffs affecting security staff.

Why it matters: Ruby developers must update their understanding of package management controls; organizations using Cisco SD-WAN appliances need to evaluate this zero-day exposure immediately; security leaders should monitor the impact of talent losses at major tech companies on the overall security industry.
