Rust 1.100, scheduled for November 12, 2026, will stabilize Cargo dependency cooldowns. Developers can reject newly published crate versions until they reach a configurable minimum age. The aim is to give researchers, maintainers and registries time to detect malicious releases before automated updates spread them across development envir…
Aikido Security published a best-practices guide for defending against software supply chain attacks. It cites Aikido Intel data: about 7.5 million package versions analyzed in Q2 2026, with 19,500 malicious packages confirmed. The guide uses recent incidents to show which controls would have worked: the axios compromise, tj-actions/chang…
An attacker pushed forged commits to the default branches of two unrelated GitHub projects, hugo-paper and mevn-cli. The commits add a preinstall hook (scripts/preinstall.js) that downloads and silently runs a second-stage script from buildwithknexus.xyz during npm install or bun install. The commits copy the author, date and message of t…
On August 20, 2026, a compromised release of the Rust crate arrayref (0.3.10, about 245 million all-time downloads) appeared on crates.io. It added a dependency on the typosquatted crate proc-macro1 1.0.107, whose build script downloads and runs a remote binary at compile time. The maintainer account droundy appears to have been compromis…
Unit 42 reports that threat actors are moving supply chain malware C2 from hardcoded endpoints to Web3 mechanisms, so an entire botnet or worm infrastructure can be re-pointed with a single blockchain transaction. The ChainDrop npm worm (Shai-Hulud family, 400+ npm packages) and the PolinRider campaign (npm, Go modules, Packagist) target …
SafeDep flagged the malicious npm package ulid-xyz in June 2026. It typosquats ulidx and is a cross-platform remote access trojan. It is delivered through a three-layer transitive dependency chain: ioredis-xyz (a clone of the legitimate ioredis client) depends on redis-type-xyz (an empty manifest posing as Redis OM), which in version 1.10…
