A crypto-mining campaign abusing Hugging Face models returned days after takedown, hijacking GPU servers and planting backdoors, with one model downloaded over 28,000 times. Separately, a fake Solana starter kit on GitHub is positioned to trick AI coding agents into installing a NetSupport RAT. [...]
Key Takeaways Malicious packages can steal cloud credentials during installation, before applications run. Stolen credentials turn developer workstations and CI/CD pipelines into gateways to cloud resources. Restrict installation scripts, minimize credential privileges, protect metadata access, and monitor cloud activity. Containment requires revoking exposed credentials and investigating cloud activity beyond removing compromised packages. Qualys TotalCloud connects cloud risk signals, while…
Two third-party GitHub Actions previously compromised in a Mini Shai-Hulud campaign were re-enabled by their maintainer and remained accessible for more than a week despite still pointing to malicious code. [...]

Introduction The landscape of software supply chain security has undergone a significant shift. Recent campaigns demonstrate that sophisticated threat actors are systematically targeting the engineering lifecycle by compromising trusted security and programming tools. These intrusions reveal three key tactics: Attackers target trusted security scanners, utility libraries, and AI developer tools to exploit the elevated privileges granted to these systems within build pipelines. Adversaries…

Executive Summary Following disclosure of the TraderTraitor attack against LayerZero in April 2026, SentinelOne identified an additional victim with the same macOS backdoors. Our analysis explores the mechanics of these backdoors and the expanded targeting against a victim in the IT services sector with no relationship to cryptocurrency trading. We also identified more weaponized GitHub repositories from the social engineering schemes used to target job seekers in these campaigns. This report…
Executive Summary Since the release of our May 2026 report detailing adversarial misuse of artificial intelligence (AI), Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) has observed forward leaning adversaries transition from basic prompting to agentic AI workflows and AI-enabled automation. In these operations, human-in-the-loop latency is dramatically reduced, compressing the traditional window for defenders to respond. In Q2 2026, GTIG observed threat actors compromise a cloud resource, then plan,…

Preamble In 2025 and 2026, we watched a pattern play out across the industry. Attackers stopped going after production servers directly and started targeting the automation that deploys to them. Compromised developer credentials, a modified workflow file, and suddenly every secret in a CI/CD environment is streaming to an attacker-controlled endpoint. We saw this play out across incidents involving major open-source projects, Fortune 500 companies, and critical infrastructure tooling. The…
