🚨 CRITICAL: Active supply chain attack on axios -- one of npm's most depended-on packages. The latest axios@1.14.1 now pulls in plain-crypto-js@4.2.1, a package that did not exist before today. This is a live compromise. This is textbook supply chain installer malware. axios has 100M+ weekly downloads. Every npm install pulling the latest version is potentially compromised right now. Socket AI analysis confirms this is malware. plain-crypto-js is an obfuscated dropper/loader that: • Deobfuscates embedded payloads and operational strings at runtime • Dynamically loads fs, os, and execSync to evade static analysis • Executes decoded shell commands • Stages and copies payload files into OS temp and Windows ProgramData directories • Deletes and renames artifacts post-execution to destroy forensic evidence If you use axios, pin your version immediately and audit your lockfiles. Do not upgrade.



attribution is gonna be a PAIN for this one













Claude (and other models) are hacking systems WITHOUT YOU ASKING. That’s what we found across dozens of experiments. When faced with innocent tasks that can only be accomplished via hacking, they often choose to hack. We found this alarming. What does this mean for the future of AI safety? 🚨🚨🚨 🔗trufflesecurity.com/blog/claude-tr…
