Ouch: critical supply chain attack in one of the most popular VS Code Extensions (2.2M installs)
I was bitten by this today - the payload dropped a Python C2 backdoor and LaunchAgent. (fortunately, it failed to run due to failed dependencies...)
Incidentally, my local install was almost 2 hours after the maintainers claim they pulled it from the marketplace so the real-world exposure window appears to have been substantially longer than 11 minutes.
