• [$] The many failures leading to the LiteLLM compromise

    LiteLLM
    is a gateway library providing access to a number of large language models (LLMs); it is popular and widely used. On March 24, the word went out
    that the version of LiteLLM found in the Python
    Package Index (PyPI) repository had been
    compromised with information-stealing malware and downloaded thousands of times, sparking concern across the net. This may look like just another supply-chain attack - and it is - but the way it came about reveals just
    how many weak links there are in the software supply chains that we all
    depend on.
