Slow Fog: Red Hat cloud service npm package suffers from active supply chain attacks, with stolen credentials found in over 300 GitHub repositories

SlowMist has issued a security alert, detecting an active npm supply chain attack targeting @redhat-cloud-services related packages. Currently, over 31 packages have been confirmed affected, with a weekly download volume of approximately 116,000 times, and stolen credentials exist in more than 300 GitHub repositories. This attack method is highly similar to the previous "Shai-Hulud" npm attack, including credential theft, creation of malicious repositories, and automated secret leakage. New suspicious repositories continue to emerge, indicating that the attack is still ongoing, and developers are still being continuously infected.Potential harms include: theft of GitHub/npm tokens, leakage of AWS/GCP/Azure cloud credentials, collection of SSH keys and Kubernetes secrets, leakage of local environment and wallet data, creation of malicious repositories and persistence operations, and even potentially destructive actions after tokens are revoked. It is recommended to immediately remove or downgrade affected @redhat-cloud-services package versions, conduct a comprehensive audit of CI/CD workflows and dependency installations, rotate all GitHub, npm, cloud service, SSH, and wallet-related keys, retain logs, and rebuild exposed developer machines or Runners from clean images while maintaining a high level of vigilance.

The security incidents at GitHub and Grafana are likely related to a large-scale "mini sandworm" supply chain attack

According to the threat intelligence released by Slow Fog, several high-frequency npm packages including AntV and Echarts-for-react, as well as the Python SDK durabletask, have recently been targeted by the Mini Shai-Hulud "mini sandworm" supply chain attack. The npm account atool was compromised, and the attacker automatically published 637 malicious versions within 22 minutes, affecting 317 packages. The attacker continuously uploaded durabletask versions 1.4.1, 1.4.2, and 1.4.3 within 35 minutes, bypassing normal release controls and impersonating an official Microsoft release.The large-scale leak of GitHub tokens and the ransomware attack on Grafana Labs are likely related to this supply chain attack. Affected components include high-frequency components such as AntV and Echarts-for-react in the npm ecosystem, as well as Python packages durabletask 1.4.1, 1.4.2, and 1.4.3. Attackers can steal cloud and local credentials, gain unauthorized access to internal repositories and sensitive cloud infrastructure, move laterally to developer machines and CI/CD pipelines, sell and exploit leaked GitHub tokens, and implement ransom and data leak threats.Slow Fog recommends immediately rotating all exposed credentials, replacing affected packages, isolating potentially infected systems, and implementing strict dependency review policies. Previously, it was reported that the "mini sandworm" worm had recently completed widespread infection in open-source code repositories, and developers should be vigilant in checking for issues.

GitHub updates security incident investigation: An employee's device was compromised, involving a contaminated VS Code extension

GitHub has updated the details of the investigation into the unauthorized access incident of its internal repositories: GitHub detected and contained an incident yesterday involving an employee's device being compromised, which involved a maliciously implanted VS Code extension. GitHub removed the malicious extension, isolated the affected terminals, and immediately initiated an incident response. Current assessments show that only GitHub's internal repositories experienced data exfiltration, and the approximately 3,800 repositories claimed by the attackers are roughly consistent with the investigation results. GitHub has prioritized rotating critical credentials, is analyzing logs, verifying credential rotations, and monitoring subsequent activities, with a complete report to be released after the investigation is concluded.Additionally, Slow Mist's Chief Information Security Officer 23pds commented on this incident, stating: "By analyzing leaks from cybercrime forums, hackers may have used Anthropic's Mythos security AI to precisely breach GitHub's defenses and steal information from about 4,000 core internal repositories: including the source code for Copilot, the algorithms for CodeQL, the Actions runtime, and the entire billing system. Further analysis of this code could lead to subsequent attacks, having a profound security impact on the integration of the open-source community."

Chan Mo-po: Hong Kong will strive to become a key hub for the application and scaling development of AI and Web3 technologies

The Financial Secretary of Hong Kong, Paul Chan, delivered the opening speech at the 2026 Hong Kong Web3 Carnival, stating, "The rise of AI agents this year is another noteworthy milestone. The intersection of AI and technologies like Web3 is changing the game. The combination of the two will elevate transaction efficiency to a new level and cover a broader range of business areas, from finance and trade to wealth management, supply chain operations, and logistics. This combination will create a multitude of new opportunities but will also pose a series of challenges, such as issues related to infrastructure payment and settlement systems and regulatory rules.Hong Kong's policy on Web3 and AI has always been clear, maintaining consistency under the principle of 'one country, two systems.' As an international financial center, Hong Kong embraces innovation, with stablecoins, tokenization, and AI becoming important components of the mainstream future. Hong Kong's regulators have a dual mission of prudent regulation and promoting market development, which requires us to encourage and support more innovative applications, improving our institutional framework based on continuous experience. I firmly believe that Hong Kong will undoubtedly become a key hub for the thriving development, widespread application, and responsible scaling of the new generation of technologies."
