Looks like the maintainer of a number of highly-popular npm packages was phished through npnjs[.]com, and his access used to publish malicious versions of their packages

As an European, the term "deportation" is always painful to hear, especially on the topic of immigrants and political oponents

(it doesn't have the same meaning as in French, but it's spelled the same)

New research: We've been monitoring a threat actor publishing dozens of trojanized GitHub repositories targeting threat actors, leaking hundreds of thousands of credentials along the way

Supply-chain attack in the ultralytics PyPI package: github.com/ultralytics/...

An attacker opened a pull request and pushed a commit with a malicious name, leading to CI code injection.

They then backdoored versions 8.3.41 and 8.3.42 with code downloading a second-stage binary from GitHub

Stratus Red Team v2.20.0 is now available, with great contributions from @flekyy90.bsky.social allowing you to reproduce AWS TTPs seen in the wild!

➔ Use GetFederationToken to generate temporary credentials

➔ Use SendSerialConsoleSSHPublicKey to pivot to EC2 instances

Exclusive: The backdoor inserted in v1.95.7 adds an "addToQueue" function which exfiltrates the private key through seemingly-legitimate CloudFlare headers.

Calls to this function are then inserted in various places that (legitimately) access the private key.

Great new feature in Terraform (v1.10.0 RC): ephemeral resources!

Perfect when you need to retrieve credentials that you don't want to persist in the state.

developer.hashicorp.com/terraform/la...

Currently supports aws_lambda_invocation, aws_kms_secrets, and aws_secretsmanager_secret_version
