  6. 🕵🏻‍♂️ [InfoSec MASHUP] - This week's news cycle handed us the usual parade of breaches, arrests, and patch-your-stuff urgency — but if you squint at the #Malware section long enough, a more uncomfortable story emerges. #SAP-related npm packages backdoored with a credential stealer. A popular #PyPI package hijacked via a forged signed release pushed through a compromised GitHub Actions workflow. Seventy-three "sleeper" extensions quietly sitting in #OpenVSX, waiting. The common thread: attackers aren't breaking down the front door anymore. They're walking in through the tools developers use every day, often with a valid signature and a clean commit history.

    What makes this particularly fun — in the way a slow-motion disaster is fun — is that the blast radius isn't just the developer who ran pip install. It's every downstream user, every CI/CD pipeline, every AI coding agent that helpfully executed the preinstall hook without asking questions. The supply chain isn't a niche threat vector reserved for nation-state ops anymore. It's where commodity attackers are increasingly playing, because it scales beautifully and the detection gap remains embarrassingly wide.

    → Week #18/2026 also covers: Supply chain attackers found the path of least resistance, #OpenSSH patched a bug older than most junior devs, and #Europe is done pretending U.S. #cloud is a neutral choice.

  11. GlassWorm Malware Resurfaces Through 73 OpenVSX Extensions

    Researchers at Socket have uncovered a sneaky new wave of GlassWorm malware, this time hiding in 73 OpenVSX extensions that behave like sleepers - seemingly harmless at first, but turning malicious after a stealthy update. Six of these extensions have already been activated, unleashing malware on unsuspecting developers.
