Malware in unity packages
-
I've seen some stuff about malware in unity packages recently and it's got me a littleeee worried cause I have downloaded a lot of stuff so really how common is it and how worried should I be about it? And what are signs that the person who is sharing the avatar shouldn't be trusted?

If you have a package that you are unsure of don't import it in unity and instead open the archive (.unitypackage are just archive files) with a different program to inspect the files without executing code.
If you really unsure, you can always use this tool called PackageScanner found on Github.

Well a lot of creators have their ways to setup avatars and someone just let some weird files inside.
You can try my scanner to see if some unitypackage are suspicious
