A cryptocurrency-mining campaign is actively exploiting CVE-2026-33017, an unauthenticated RCE vulnerability in Langflow, to deploy the lambsys malware. The attack chain involves a bash dropper that establishes SSH-based lateral movement, followed by a Go-based payload that systematically disables Linux security controls, eliminates rival miners, and deploys a customized XMRig miner.
The TeamPCP threat actor targets cloud-native and containerized environments to deploy cryptominers and ransomware. The attack chain involves initial access via web server exploitation, in-memory payload execution, Kubernetes API abuse for lateral movement, and node-level escape using privileged DaemonSets.
A joint research project by SentinelLABS and Censys discovered a massive, unmanaged network of over 175,000 publicly exposed Ollama instances. Many of these self-hosted AI models possess tool-calling and vision capabilities, creating significant security risks such as resource hijacking, prompt injection, and identity laundering through residential proxy abuse.
