How we caught the Axios supply chain attack

A researcher named Joe Desimone describes discovering the Axios supply chain attack and developing a proof of concept tool to identify it. The account details how the attack was caught using a tool built in a single afternoon.

Why it matters: Developers and security teams using Axios should understand how this supply chain compromise was detected and apply lessons to their own dependency verification processes.
