PyTorch Lightning versions 2.6.2 and 2.6.3 on PyPI were compromised to auto-execute malicious code deploying Bun runtime and obfuscated JavaScript aimed at stealing credentials via stolen GitHub tokens. #PythonSecurity#SupplyChain#USAift.tt/fcjrzXY
Researchers just exposed DEEP#DOOR, a Python backdoor that steals browser & cloud credentials via tunneling, what's the most effective way to block such batch scripts from disabling Windows security controls?

In March 2026, attackers trojanized LiteLLM Python packages on PyPI, deploying Base64-encoded payloads to steal local files, cloud credentials, and crypto wallets, using .pth persistence in Kubernetes environments. #LiteLLM#PythonSecurity#USAift.tt/WzNyDXg
AI coding assistants hallucinate fake PyPI package names that attackers can pre-register to deliver malicious hooks and gain shell access. Combined with hardcoded creds and missing auth, this risks full infra takeover. #DependencyAttack#PythonSecurityift.tt/XtqW3EY
