Publication Python's binary wheels and supply chain attacks

Python's binary wheels and supply chain attacks Artem Golubin highlights a supply chain security risk in Python's packaging ecosystem: binary wheels uploaded to PyPI can contain malicious code that differs from their accompanying source distributions. Since most security scanners focus on source code rather than compiled binaries, attackers could hide malware in prebuilt wheels that pip installs by default. https://rushter.com/blog/python-binary-wheels/
