10 Malicious npm Packages Linked to Runtime Malware Campaign With Millions of Downloads
A sophisticated npm supply-chain campaign has been linked to 10 malicious JavaScript packages that collectively recorded millions of downloads while bypassing npm’s lifecycle-script protections. The operation centers on a counterfeit package named indexed-btree, which impersonates the legitimate sorted-btree library and executes its malware only when an application uses the package at runtime. Unlike conventional npm…

The AI Supply Chain Has a Security Problem, and Much of It Is Sitting on the Open Internet
Researchers found 36,769 exposed AI endpoints, but only 2% had an HTTP authentication gate. Running AI locally is supposed to give organizations more control. Models, prompts and documents stay on infrastructure they manage instead of being sent to a third-party cloud. But that advantage disappears quickly when the infrastructure itself is exposed to the public…
