Hugging Face malware campaign returns to hijack GPUs for crypto mining

A campaign of 31 malicious Hugging Face repositories across seven accounts, found by Pluto Security, posed as small Qwen2 checkpoints and used trust_remote_code to run a cryptominer and reverse shell on GPU inference hosts. The top model reached 28,412 downloads and scanned clean, and a second wave returned within days of takedown. The article also covers a fake Solana starter kit on GitHub that installs NetSupport Manager via a PowerShell one-liner aimed at AI coding agents.

OpenCode User Hit with Hostile Backlash After Reporting Free AI Loophole

Socket reports on a GitHub issue for OpenCode, opened 28 June, describing a bypass of per-IP usage limits on its free hosted models by switching VPN addresses. The reporter first proposed account-based limits, then reopened the issue in August to promote the workaround and claimed to run 130 agents. After the thread drew harassment and was deleted in October 2026, it is unclear whether OpenCode fixed the bypass.

Socket reports on a GitHub issue in the OpenCode tracker describing a bypass of per-IP usage limits on free hosted models, using a VPN to switch addresses. The reporter first urged account-based limits, then claimed to run 130 concurrent agents through the loophole. After the issue drew harassment it was deleted. Whether OpenCode fixed the bypass in October 2026 stays unclear.

GitHub saw 7.4B commits in Sep., adding 4M CPU cores+160 PB storage to keep up

GitHub reported 7.4 billion commits per month in September 2026, up from 2.9 billion in August and 1.4 billion in April, which it attributes mostly to agentic demand. It has added 4 million CPU cores, 160 PB of storage and 50 Tb/s of network capacity this year, mostly on Azure. It is also rearchitecting to separate compute and storage, with internal benchmarks showing up to 35x higher write throughput.

Simon Willison's link post on GitHub Octoverse 2026, announced by GitHub EVP Jay Parikh at GitHub Universe on 28 October 2026. Merged pull requests tripled in under a year to 220 million per month, commits passed 7.38 billion per month, and new repositories doubled to 30.3 million per month. It quotes the methodology for country, industry (NAICS) and "interoperability or reverse engineering" repository counts. The post does not analyse the report beyond these figures.

Campfire is a self-hosted tool that runs Claude Code, Codex, Goose, Aider and OpenHands in one tab. Risky actions need permission voting (majority approves, any single deny blocks, 30 second timeout), and session replay traces which file or tool call triggered an action. The post cites Forever Security's finding that Codex followed a planted AGENTS.md instruction over 90% of the time and Claude Code about half the time. It also cites the February Cline release compromise via a poisoned GitHub Actions cache.

Log-To-Leak: Prompt Injection Attacks on Tool-Using LLM Agents via the Model Context Protocol

Log-To-Leak is a prompt-injection attack on tool-using LLM agents that abuses Model Context Protocol tool metadata to trigger an attacker-controlled logging call after the last legitimate call, leaking the user query, server name, server response and agent response. Evaluated on five MCP servers and four agents, it reaches 62.64-100% attack success with 76.55-95.64% logging accuracy. Three defenses leave over 55% residual ASR on GitHub MCP with GPT-4o.

Thread on two October 2026 npm compromises: @subql/common 5.8.3 (5 October), published through GitHub Actions OIDC Trusted Publishing after the attacker tampered with the publish workflow, and tensorlake 0.5.144 (8 October), published by the project's own release workflow with valid provenance for about 1 hour 40 minutes. Both ran on install and stole cloud, GitHub, Kubernetes, Vault, SSH and .env credentials; tensorlake also took AI tool and MCP config. Its payload installed a gh-token-monitor service that deletes the home directory if the stolen GitHub token is revoked, so remove it before rotating.

PHP2Shell: From the attacker’s perspective

PHP2Shell is the public exploit for CVE-2026-109618 (corrupted internal state at the memory limit, allowing hijack during cleanup) and CVE-2026-109619 (double free used to leak memory and defeat ASLR). Orca ran the GitHub tool unchanged against an unpatched PHP server and got command execution. It then built its own exploit with AI from the patch, which worked on PHP 8.4.26 and WordPress. Fixed in 8.2.35, 8.3.36, 8.4.27 and 8.5.12.

An empirical study of security concerns in the OpenClaw AI personal assistant framework, using 25K+ posts from 13 subreddits (162 security-relevant) and 358 security-tagged GitHub issues (180 retained). It maps 521 CWE instances across 59 weakness types, concentrated in access control, sensitive-data exposure, injection and unsafe execution. It extracts 543 practitioner mitigations into seven strategies and reconstructs a sensitive-data exposure path with dummy secrets.

The Pwn Request Reckoning: What Still Works Against GitHub Actions

The Pwn Request Reckoning is a Wiz post updating the GitHub Actions pull_request_target threat model for 2026. It covers what GitHub's checkout protections, read-only cache tokens and event policies block, and what still works. Remaining paths: SHA-pinned pre-backport actions/checkout, custom checkout scripts, issue_comment and repository_dispatch triggers, script injection, artifact poisoning, self-hosted runner state and allow-unsafe-pr-checkout. It ends with grep and zizmor audit steps.

Post about the "Steal My Bitcoin" bounty, a 0.025 BTC (about $2,025) prize that was swept early Monday, about 90 minutes after researcher @killa published a full exploit on GitHub. The exploit is a heap exploit written for the target's PHP build. It leaks memory addresses through session cookies and forces PHP cleanup to run the flag binary. The first solve looked like a failure because the pulled key did not control the advertised address, a planting mistake the creator admitted by email.

OpenAI describes three results its models produced in October 2026: a proof of the local smoothing conjecture in all dimensions, a disproof of the Exponential Time Hypothesis, and an existence proof for four-dimensional Yang–Mills and QCD. Each is shepherded by external expert groups under four principles (transparency, no academic credit, recognition, independence). Lean proofs and AI writeups for two results are on GitHub. All claims are OpenAI's.

Gheist is a GitHub campaign disclosed by Wiz in October 2026. Stolen tokens push ci-sync-XXXXXX branches with a sync-check workflow that dumps repo secrets base32-encoded to evade log masking, fetches the logs via API, then deletes the run. 13,500+ branches and 850+ accounts were hit since 15 September. Public repos are protected by the approval hold; private and Enterprise repos are not. The thread lists IOCs (.gdmp_pat files, "gheist" user agent, "ci: sync config" commits) and rotation steps.

Gheist: Attempted Scaled Abuse of Stolen GitHub Tokens Stumbles

Gheist is a campaign tracked by Wiz Research since 15 September 2026 that uses stolen GitHub tokens to push a sync-check workflow on ci-sync-* branches in every reachable repository. The workflow prints base32-encoded secrets into logs, which the tool downloads through the GitHub API and then deletes. Over 13,500 branches from 850+ accounts were recovered. The post covers the two tool variants, a buggy self-hosted runner payload, GitHub's approval hold (which does not cover private repositories), overlaps with other campaigns, hunting queries, IOCs and hardening steps.

Show HN: Farol – A risk map of a pull request for the person who approves it

farol is a free, MIT-licensed CLI and GitHub Action that runs after an AI code review and gives the human approver a risk verdict (fast track, quick review, careful review) and a 0-100 score for a pull request. It uses the TypeScript type checker, go/types and Python ast to trace which pages, APIs and jobs a change reaches, and it adds diff coverage, security findings and contract breaks. It never executes or sends code.

They discuss the PHP2Shell remote code execution bug, the repeat LiteLLM compromise from an API key left in GitHub for five months, abliterated model APIs, and trusted-access programs from OpenAI and Anthropic.
