The Miasma Mini Shai-Hulud supply chain campaign has expanded to compromise 22 npm package versions under the @immobiliarelabs scope, targeting Backstage plugins for GitLab integration and LDAP authentication. The malicious packages use a binding.gyp 'Phantom Gyp' trick to execute hidden root-level index.js payloads without preinstall/postinstall hooks, followed by AES-128-GCM decryption and multi-stage delivery under the Bun runtime. The final payload exfiltrates developer and CI/CD secrets via the GitHub API to attacker-controlled repositories, and the campaign likely propagated through a compromised codfish/semantic-release-action GitHub Action that enabled access to release automation credentials.

StealC is a C++ malware-as-a-service infostealer that harvests credentials, cookies, and session tokens from browsers, email clients, crypto wallets, and gaming platforms, using APC injection to bypass Chromium App-Bound Encryption. Amadey is a modular MaaS loader that delivers StealC and other payloads through a rich backdoor command set including process injection, SOCKS proxying, RDP enablement, and hidden admin account creation. Microsoft DCU disrupted over 200 C2 domains and IPs associated with both threats in a coordinated action with Europol on June 24, 2026.

A sophisticated malvertising campaign abused Google Ads to deliver ClickFix social engineering attacks disguised as popular AI developer tools and Mac utilities. The threat actors initially leveraged GitLab Pages before pivoting to weaponize claude.ai's shared chat feature, tricking macOS users into executing terminal commands that deploy the MacSync infostealer.

Threat actors are increasingly abusing legitimate Git repository platforms like GitHub and GitLab to host malware and credential phishing pages. By leveraging the inherent trust organizations place in these domains, attackers successfully bypass secure email gateways (SEGs) to deliver dual-threat campaigns involving remote access trojans (RATs), infostealers, and credential harvesting.

The advisories highlight vulnerabilities across various enterprise products including GitLab, Node.js, n8n, Hitachi, ISC BIND, and Cisco, urging administrators to apply necessary updates and mitigations.

AI Rush Opens New Attack Paths as Trusted Cloud Services Fuel Phishing The rush to adopt artificial intelligence is giving attackers two new advantages: convincing lures to trick users and poorly secured infrastructure to exploit. This week, multiple campaigns used fake websites for the Claude AI assistant to infect victims with password-stealing malware, while researchers revealed that commercial robots and AI connection protocols contain critical flaws that let hackers hijack them. Because organizations are deploying AI tools faster than they can secure them, attackers are finding easy entry points into corporate networks. In parallel, phishing campaigns are increasingly hijacking trusted cloud services like Amazon's email platform and Vercel's AI-powered website builder to send messages that bypass security filters entirely. A massive campaign targeting US employees used fake HR reviews to steal login sessions even when multi-factor authentication was enabled, and the breach of the Canvas learning platform exposed data on 275 million people that can now be used for highly convincing follow-up scams. These trends together suggest that traditional defenses are losing effectiveness because attackers are hiding inside the systems we already trust. Organizations should immediately patch the actively exploited Palo Alto Networks and Ivanti vulnerabilities flagged by CISA this week, require phishing-resistant authentication methods, and treat every AI tool and robot connected to their network as a high-risk device that needs strict monitoring.
