Yes and the scary part is you might never know the full extent. A credential stealer grabs whatever is in memory or env during the build, ships it out, and the attacker uses those creds weeks later from a completely different IP. The compromised package gets caught and reverted, everyone thinks the incident is over, meanwhile the stolen tokens are still valid. I wonder how many teams who installed 1.82.7 actually rotated all their CI secrets after this, not just uninstalled the bad version.
