Is it possible for a malware attack similar to AUR to happen on Copr repo on Fedora?

As you all know, hackers have updated abandoned packages in Arch User Repository (AUR) by injecting an info-stealer to them, resulting in many Arch Linux users to get malware installed in their systems. Given that the Copr repo on Fedora is similar to AUR with users being able to upload their own packages, I wonder if there is a high risk of Copr also being targeted in a similar way?
