⚠️ WARNING - A Trivy-linked supply chain attack has escalated into a self-propagating npm worm now spreading across dozens of packages. It steals npm tokens, republishes itself, and spreads through developer machines and CI. Uses an ICP canister to rotate payloads and resist takedowns. 🔗 How the worm spreads and updates payloads → thehackernews.com/2026/03/trivy-…

🔥 54 EDR killers now use BYOVD, abusing 34 signed drivers to reach kernel access. Ransomware operators deploy them first to disable defenses, not evade detection inside the encryptor. Evasion has moved out—into dedicated tools built to break EDR reliably. 🔗 Tools, tactics, and defensive gaps explained → thehackernews.com/2026/03/54-edr…

🛑 Shai-Hulud 2.0 ran code before security scans, quietly breaking CI/CD at the source. As Jonny Rivera from @ActiveState explains, it stole cloud credentials and turned GitHub runners into attacker-controlled botnets—long before detection kicked in. Fix: control what enters the pipeline. 🔗 How curated catalogs stop pre-install attacks → thehackernews.com/expert-insight…
