A security research firm reported Monday that it had identified breaches of 42 third-party GitHub repositories in which attackers had deployed payload blobs large enough “to evade the GitHub search and API paths normally used to find this kind of compromise.” The report from JFrog Security Research said the victimized repositories contained execution hooks for AI coding assistants and IDEs, along with polymorphic wra…
A vulnerability in Google’s Brotli compression library could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code in applications that use an affected Brotli decoder to process compressed data. Tracked as CVE-2026-111497, the high-severity flaw was first flagged in the Brotli decoder bundled with Node.js. The issue stems from an out-of-bounds write that can corrupt process memory, potentially leading to remote code execution (R…

Developers mostly use GitLab Duo Agent Platform where they already work: the IDE, merge requests, and issues. But DevSecOps teams also support the business systems the rest of the company runs on, and those systems break too.In Salesforce, for example, when a validation fails, a callout times out, or a null slips through a trigger, the error gets logged, but the log doesn’t explain the cause. An engineer still has to…

A rentable Android spyware kit called uCreator takes over Telegram and WeChat accounts by hiding its code inside working copies of the two apps, researcher Ovi found. It only reaches people who install one of these tampered copies, spread outside the official app stores, or who run WeChat inside the kit makers' own container app. The kit's Telegram part matches Baohuo, a backdoor that Doctor
Built on an evolutionary engine first released in 2018, STAR Fuzzer by Bright Security finds crashes, memory exhaustion and memory-safety bugs in security-critical code without a running application. In its first open source research run, it found High or Critical issues in 45% of the projects tested, and in its first month of availability it produced ten published findings in eight projects, including the Crystal st…
An automated campaign is using stolen GitHub tokens to plant workflows that print a repository's secrets into its GitHub Actions logs, which the attackers then download before deleting the runs. The attacks have succeeded in private repositories and GitHub Enterprise environments, according to an analysis by cloud security company Wiz. A GitHub safeguard that pauses
