Forget typosquatting; slopsquatting is the software supply chain threat created by AI coding tools | VentureBeat

VentureBeat explains slopsquatting, an emerging software supply-chain threat in which attackers exploit LLM coding assistants' tendency to hallucinate plausible-sounding but nonexistent package names, then register those names and populate them with malicious code that gets pulled into developer codebases. The piece notes that traditional registry protections against typosquatting do not catch these fabricated names, and cites research showing high hallucination rates and rising OSS vulnerability trends, including work on adversarial hallucination squatting used to build agentic botnets.
