Frontier-Level Red-Teaming From a Self-Hostable Open-Weight Model: Testing NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Super

Orca Security's research team built an internal prototype, Agent Piercer, that attacks AI agents by choosing probes, writing attacks and judging whether they worked. They compared NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Super (self-hosted on 4×L40S via SageMaker) with Opus 4.8, GPT-6 Astra and Grok 4.7 as the driving model against the same live target. Nemotron matched the frontier models on vulnerability types found (four) and was the only one to complete every simple test and judge all 57 real attack conversations. The post also notes that some proprietary models declined authorized red-team tasks under default safety settings, which makes self-hosted open-weight models attractive for offensive testing.

Critical GitLab RCE Lets Unauthenticated Attackers Execute Code on Servers (CVE-2026-97229)

Orca Security analysis of CVE-2026-97229, a CVSS 10.0 flaw in GitLab CE/EE. An integer overflow (CWE-190) in the CI/CD regular expression compiler gives memory corruption and code execution as the git user. It is triggered by a crafted regex in .gitlab-ci.yml combined with a UTF-8 repository path, with no authentication needed on instances that allow public project creation or self-registration. Lists affected branches (19.2 before 19.2.8, 19.3 before 19.3.5, 19.4 before 19.4.2), the absence of a workaround, interim mitigations, and a Rapid7 PoC against GitLab CE 19.4.1 with ASLR on. Notes a prior max-severity GitLab bug (CVE-2026-85706) was probed in the wild within hours and later added to CISA KEV.

Malicious npm Campaign “MALFEX” Delivers RAT and Stealer via Eight Packages with 40,000+ Downloads

Orca Security details "MALFEX," a supply-chain campaign active since August 2023 in which a suspected lone Brazilian threat actor published eight malicious npm packages (tlxbnhd, tldriver, mxdriver, img-to-native, native-runner, function-flag, function-color, cdn-img-fetch) that together drew over 40,767 downloads. Using postinstall lifecycle hooks, the packages deliver three malware families to Windows hosts: the Go-based Overlord RAT (with a Solana blockchain C2 resolver), the Node.js "movinlike" credential/Discord/crypto-wallet stealer, and rotating downloader payloads — with three packages (notably function-flag) still live on npm and only six of the eight carrying OSV advisories at publication time. The piece includes host IOCs (file paths, scheduled task name), affected package lists, and remediation steps (lockfile auditing, credential rotation) alongside a pitch for Orca's SCA detection of the OSV-flagged packages.

Critical Atlassian Path Traversal Exposes Sensitive Files Across 8 Products

Orca Security details CVE-2026-21589 (CVSS 9.3), a critical unauthenticated path traversal flaw affecting all versions of eight Atlassian Data Center and Server products: Bitbucket, Confluence, Jira Software, Jira Service Management, Bamboo, Crowd, Crucible, and Fisheye. Insufficient path validation lets remote attackers read arbitrary files within the web application root without authentication, and in Crowd SSO deployments this can expose plaintext credentials usable to create administrative accounts and take over the entire Atlassian ecosystem. The advisory lists fixed versions for each product and recommends WAF rules and log review for organizations unable to patch immediately.

Connect Orca’s ChatGPT Plugin: Cloud Risk Context in Chat and Codex

Orca Security's plugin connects ChatGPT and Codex to Orca's MCP server, letting security teams and developers query cloud alerts, attack paths, effective IAM permissions, and code-to-cloud origins directly from chat or a coding agent instead of logging into a console. The post walks through six security-team use cases (exposure discovery, CVE impact triage, alert-to-blast-radius investigation, identity permission review, CISO reporting) and three developer workflows in Codex where alerts are traced back to the Terraform/code that created the misconfiguration and fixed in place.

npm Supply-Chain Attack Abuses Trusted Publishing to Ship GHAPPIER Loader

Orca Security details a supply-chain attack on the npm package @dforge-core/dforge-mcp, where a compromised maintainer account modified the GitHub Actions release workflow so any push to main triggered an OIDC-based trusted publish, shipping malicious version 0.2.21 with valid Sigstore provenance. The four-stage GHAPPIER loader activated only when the MCP server launched, deployed a self-deleting remote shell, and per CloudSEK's tracing appeared across 65 repos and 22 accounts; a second payload matched PolinRider, a DPRK-linked campaign using Ethereum transactions for C2. The piece underscores that npm provenance attests build origin, not source integrity, and lists remediation steps since no CVE or advisory yet exists.

Incident Automation: Benefits, Tools & Best Practices

Orca Security guide distinguishing alerts, incident records, and actions in incident response automation, mapping a cloud storage-bucket-exposure incident through detection, declaration, enrichment, routing/paging, and suppression steps. Draws on AWS Well-Architected event/incident/problem management guidance, ISO/IEC 27035-3:2020 lifecycle, CISA containment guidance, and Azure alert processing rules to argue automation should be introduced step-by-step based on reversibility rather than as one switch.

Orca Security: Agentic AI Security

Orca Security's guide to agentic AI security distinguishes it from AI-agent security by framing the unit of risk as the whole autonomous plan/sequence rather than a single agent, and walks through OWASP's Agentic Security Initiative Threats and Mitigations taxonomy (17 threats, T1-T17, v1.1) alongside CSA's MAESTRO layered framework. It details run-level controls (action-class approval thresholds, blast-radius caps, step/time/cost budgets, kill switches, egress boundaries, replayable audit logs) and identity/delegation concerns (RFC 8693 token exchange, orchestrator trust boundaries, permission inheritance across agent chains), then describes how Orca's agentless posture management maps AI services, keys, and data reachable by agentic workflows in the cloud.

Orca Security: AI-BOM

Orca Security explains what an AI-BOM is (an inventory of models, datasets, prompts, embeddings, and external AI services an AI system depends on) and why discovery — not format — is the hard problem: components arrive via notebooks and managed consoles rather than dependency manifests. It surveys the two competing standards, CycloneDX's ML-BOM (v1.7, standardized as ECMA-424 2nd edition) and SPDX 3.0's AI/Dataset profiles, walks through failure modes like unrecoverable model lineage, stale embeddings outliving deleted source documents, and silent version drift on managed endpoints (e.g. Azure OpenAI's auto-update-to-default), and ties the practice to EU AI Act Annex IV technical-documentation requirements and the NIST AI RMF. It ends by describing Orca's agentless SideScanning-based AI inventory across Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, SageMaker, and Vertex AI.

It distinguishes granted vs. effective permissions, explains why static IAM exports miss real risk, walks through detection via AWS IAM Access Analyzer, Azure Entra Permissions Management, and GCP IAM Recommender, and lays out controls (least privilege, JIT access, continuous automated reviews, RBAC/ABAC, NHI governance, zero trust) before positioning Orca's agentless CIEM (SideScanning) as the automation layer.

Orca Security: AI Threat Detection

Orca Security explainer arguing AI threat detection is not one capability but four distinct techniques — anomaly detection, behavioral/entity baselining, supervised classification, and an agentic triage layer — each with a documented failure mode (baseline poisoning during an active intrusion, cold-start on ephemeral cloud workloads, classifiers blind to novel classes, and LLM agents confidently narrating false positives). It walks the telemetry-to-baseline-to-alert pipeline (citing AWS GuardDuty's Discovery:IAMUser/AnomalousBehavior finding and Microsoft Entra ID Protection's atypical-travel baseline), argues detection quality tracks telemetry completeness rather than model sophistication, and closes by mapping the framework to Orca's Unified Data Model and Threat Investigation Agent.

AI Security Briefing

Noma Security researchers disclosed "GitLost," a technique where a public GitHub issue containing indirect prompt-injection text tricks a GitHub Agentic Workflow (powered by Copilot, Claude, Gemini, or Codex) with org-wide read access into pasting private repository contents into a public issue comment. The attacker needs no credentials or org access; a routine issue-triggered workflow and a broad read-scoped token do the work, and Noma found that simply prefixing the injected instruction with "Additionally" bypassed GitHub's built-in threat-detection filter. The piece ties GitLost to the "lethal trifecta" (private data access + untrusted input + exfiltration channel) and to prior related disclosures (Claude Code GitHub Action flaw, Orca Security's RoguePilot, Invariant Labs' MCP finding, the "Comment and Control" study), recommending per-repo token scoping, restricted safe-outputs, and human review as mitigations.

Orca Security: Securing Shadow AI: How to Detect Unapproved LLMs in Your Cloud

Orca Security outlines a detection framework for "shadow AI" — unsanctioned LLM usage via IDE extensions (Cursor), MCP servers, and embedded SaaS/CI-CD AI features that bypass traditional CASB/DLP tools because they ride on already-trusted OAuth tokens and API calls. The framework has three steps: mapping non-human identities and OAuth scope sprawl, auditing CI/CD pipelines and SaaS platforms for embedded AI (checklist includes scanning .env files, package manifests, GitHub Actions/GitLab CI/Jenkins steps, and outbound traffic to LLM endpoints), and assessing each tool by data exposure vs. write/action authority.

The flaw stems from Kopia's /api/v1/repo/exists endpoint splitting SFTP storage configuration fields on literal spaces without a proper tokenizer or quote handling, letting an attacker inject `-oProxyCommand=<cmd>` into the SSH command line when the server runs with --without-password and SFTP/external-SSH enabled — achieving code execution via a single crafted HTTP request. Fix is Kopia 0.23.0, which blocks starting with --insecure/--without-password on non-loopback interfaces; researcher Daniele Berardinelli reported it, tracked as GHSA-2q4c-3mrw-63c3.

Orca Security: Critical Coder Signature Bypass Exposes Developer Keys and Tokens

Orca analysis of CVE-2026-46354 (CVSS 9.1) in the Coder remote development platform. azureidentity.Validate() checks that the PKCS#7 signer certificate chains to a trusted Azure CA but never verifies the signature on the envelope. An unauthenticated attacker can send a forged envelope, using a public Azure IMDS certificate and a known vmId, to POST /api/v2/workspaceagents/azure-instance-identity. This yields workspace agent session tokens, and through them Git SSH keys and OAuth tokens. The post lists the affected v2 and v1 versions, the patched releases (v2.33.3, v2.32.2, v2.31.12, v2.30.8, v2.29.13, v2.24.5) and the workaround of disabling Azure instance identity auth. Coder v1 has no patch.

Orca Security: Critical Pre-Auth RCE in ChromaDB Threatens AI Infrastructure

CVE-2026-45829 (CVSS 10.0) is a pre-authentication remote code execution flaw in ChromaDB's Python FastAPI server, versions 1.0.0 through 1.5.8. The server processes user-controlled embedding function configuration before authentication checks, letting an attacker send a crafted collection-creation request referencing a malicious HuggingFace model with trust_remote_code enabled to force arbitrary Python code execution pre-auth. Discovered by researcher Azraelxuemo and later HiddenLayer (dubbed "ChromaToast Served Pre-Auth"); Shodan-based scanning found roughly 73% of internet-exposed ChromaDB instances still vulnerable, with fixes shipped in 1.5.9.

Orca Security: CVE-2026-9082

Orca Security breaks down CVE-2026-9082, a critical unauthenticated SQL injection in Drupal core's database abstraction API affecting PostgreSQL-backed sites running versions 8.9.0 through 11.3.9. The flaw stems from insufficient query sanitization and can lead to full data exposure, privilege escalation, and in some configurations remote code execution; Drupal has shipped patched releases (e.g. 11.3.10, 10.6.9) and MySQL/MariaDB sites are unaffected by the SQLi itself but should still update for bundled Symfony/Twig fixes.

Orca Security: AI Security Tools: How to Evaluate Them Across Every ML Attack Phase

Orca Security maps six AI security tools — Adversarial Robustness Toolbox (model robustness), Purple Llama (LLM prompt/code safety), NB Defense (notebook secret scanning), Garak (LLM jailbreak/prompt-injection probing), Privacy Meter (membership-inference privacy leakage), and Viper (post-exploitation lateral movement) — against the five MITRE ATLAS attack phases, arguing each covers only one layer and none evaluate cloud infrastructure misconfiguration (IAM, storage, network) around AI workloads. It defines eight evaluation criteria (attack-phase coverage, CI/CD integration, EU AI Act/NIST AI RMF compliance mapping, shadow AI visibility, attack-path correlation, adoption friction, false-positive rate, time-to-value) and closes by positioning Orca's agentless cloud CSPM to fill the infrastructure-layer gap around SageMaker IAM roles, training buckets, and inference endpoints.

Orca Security: NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF) Explained

Orca Security's explainer breaks down NIST AI RMF 1.0 into its Govern, Map, Measure, and Manage functions and trustworthy-AI characteristics, covering companion materials (Playbook, Crosswalks, Roadmap, Use Cases) and how organizations adopt it incrementally starting from an AI inventory. It contrasts AI RMF with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and the EU AI Act, then closes with a vendor section on how Orca's AI-SPM, CSPM, DSPM, and CIEM capabilities map technical inventory and monitoring evidence to the framework's four functions.

Orca Security: GenAI Risks in Cloud Environments

Orca Security breaks down four GenAI-specific cloud asset classes that standard CSPM misses — training datasets, model artifacts, inference endpoints, and RAG vector databases — and shows how misconfigurations in each combine into full attack paths. It walks through a concrete chain (public S3 training bucket → data poisoning per MITRE ATLAS AML.T0020 → stolen SageMaker execution-role credentials via missing IMDSv2 → account-wide S3 read via overprivileged AmazonSageMakerFullAccess) and analyzes CVE-2024-34359 in Hugging Face's safetensors library as a storage-to-RCE path for SageMaker inference. It closes with concrete IAM/endpoint hardening steps and a pitch for Orca's attack-path correlation across role permissions, data sensitivity, and endpoint exposure.

Orca Security: Critical Apache HTTP Server HTTP/2 Vulnerability Could Enable Remote Code Execution

Orca Security's write-up of CVE-2026-23918 (CVSS 8.8), a double-free memory corruption bug in Apache HTTP Server's mod_http2 stream cleanup logic. An unauthenticated attacker can trigger it by sending crafted HTTP/2 HEADERS frames followed by an early RST_STREAM with a non-zero error code. This causes heap corruption, crashes, and possibly remote code execution. Version 2.4.66 is affected and 2.4.67 fixes it. Public PoC details exist, but no in-the-wild exploitation had been reported. Disabling HTTP/2 is given as a temporary workaround.
