A China-state-aligned threat actor compromised a ConnectWise cloud backup application and used an open-source agentic AI framework to turn its stolen credentials against more than 2,250 Microsoft 365 tenants, Microsoft said. Microsoft Threat Intelligence attributed the activity to Storm-0940, which it said has used the ARTEX framework since as early as September 2026 to automate attacks on hundreds of organizations.…
Cyble scanned 1.3M+ newly registered domains and found AI-built sites leaking live secrets to the browser: OpenAI keys, Stripe keys, and database tokens. Spinning up a website no longer takes a developer. A prompt to an AI app-builder returns a working, styled, deployable site in minutes, and when one template works, the same operator clones it across a dozen domains before launch. That is also how secrets end up in…
A new LiteLLM supply chain attack has turned version 1.107.0, an official release of the popular open-source LLM gateway, into a credential stealer. On October 21, 2026, attackers used stolen maintainer tokens to publish trojanized wheels to PyPI and poisoned Docker images, exposing cloud keys, AI provider secrets and LiteLLM proxy databases on any host […]
