Researchers uncovered 222 GitHub repositories spreading malware through fake Go packages, delivering loaders, stealers, RATs, and cryptominers. Socket’s security research team started with the investigation of a single malicious Go module: github[.]com/kaleidora/dnsub-scanning-tool, which presented itself as a DNS and subdomain scanning utility. Pulling on that thread exposed something significantly larger: a network of 222 confirmed […]

Also, 23andMe Breach Settlement, GitHub AI Flaw, Ubiquiti Patches Critical BugsThis week, hidden breaches, researchers exposed a GitHub AI agent flaw, an Ubiquiti critical flaw, a ColdFusion flaw, a growing Chinese ORB, U.K. government FortiBleed exposure, 23andMe victims get $46.75 million, 3.8 million affected by Medtronic breach and Cerner's 2025 victim count went up.

New research shows that a signed Git commit's hash is not the one-of-a-kind name that much of the software world assumes it to be. Given any signed commit, someone without the signing key can mint a second commit with the same files, author, and date, and a valid signature, GitHub still stamps "Verified." Everything a reviewer would check matches. The commit's hash does not. That matters

An AI coding assistant that refuses to answer a dangerous request in its chat box can answer it anyway if the same request is broken into small, ordinary-looking steps inside a code editor. That is the finding of a new study of GitHub Copilot by researchers Abhishek Kumar and Carsten Maple

A public issue can trick GitHub Agentic Workflows into leaking the contents of an organization's private repositories, researchers at Noma Security have shown

Attackers are hiding a data-stealing trojan inside fake exploit code aimed at the people who hunt bugs for a living. The malware, called ChocoPoC, travels in Python proof-of-concept (PoC) repositories on GitHub that claim to exploit hot new CVEs

Cybersecurity researchers have flagged yet another evolution of the supply chain attack linked to the Mini Shai-Hulud, Miasma, and Hades malware family that has compromised a new set of npm packages, even as it has propagated to the Go ecosystem

Cybersecurity researchers have flagged a new class of CI/CD workflow weakness that allows attackers to hijack workflows and compromise open-source supply chains

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of four vulnerabilities in Dify, an open-source agentic workflow platform with more than 146,000 GitHub stars, that could allow attackers to stealthily read artificial intelligence (AI) conversions from other customers' applications without requiring authentication

An unknown threat actor has been observed leveraging paid or promoted posts on legitimate news websites to drum up buzz for their warez, according to new findings from Check Point Research

Microsoft Threat Intelligence identified a prompt injection pathway in Claude Code GitHub Action that allowed access to workflow secrets under specific conditions. This research examines the attack chain, responsible disclosure process, Anthropic's mitigation, and guidance for securing AI-powered CI/CD workflows. The post Securing CI/CD in an agentic world: Claude Code Github action case appeared first on Microsoft Security Blog.

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed a one-click attack via Microsoft Visual Studio Code (VS Code) that makes it possible to steal a user's GitHub token

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a new malicious supply chain campaign that's targeting developers using OpenAI Codex through a legitimate-looking remote web UI

Microsoft has come out strongly in favor of Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure (CVD), urging the research community to share their findings and give affected vendors an opportunity to better understand the impact and address them before they are publicly disclosed

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a new malicious package on the npm registry that comes with information stealing capabilities

Supply-Chain Attack Uses Malicious GitHub Actions Workflow File to Steal SecretsMore than 5,000 GitHub repositories fell victim to an automated campaign, codenamed "Megalodon," in which an attacker injected malicious GitHub Actions that executed a script designed to steal development environment secrets, plus a variety of keys, tokens and other credentials, researchers said.

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a new automated campaign called Megalodon that has pushed 5,718 malicious commits to 5,561 GitHub repositories within a six-hour window

Intro A sophisticated, high-resilience malicious campaign was identified by Atos Threat Research Center (TRC) in March 2026. This operation specifically targets the high-privilege professional accounts of enterprise administrators, DevOps engineers, and security analysts by impersonating administrative utilities they rely on for daily operations.
