TeamPCP compromised the AI proxy that holds everyone's API keys
LiteLLM, the universal LLM proxy with 95 million monthly downloads, was backdoored on PyPI for 46 minutes. It was enough.

Git tags, package registries and AI extension marketplaces all share the same authentication failure - and attackers have noticed the pattern before defenders did.
gptme's evaluation runner passed API keys as Docker CLI arguments, exposing them to every user on the system via ps or /proc. The fix took one file and five tests.

A popular summarisation tool trusted every browser origin that asked. Fixing it meant thinking about who should be allowed to talk to your localhost.
Indirect prompt injection in AI coding assistants has turned every file, dependency and skill into a potential attack vector - and the CVEs are piling up.

A group calling itself Kazu walked into New Zealand's largest patient portal with valid credentials, stole 400,000 medical documents and demanded US$60,000. The breach exposed referrals, lab results and discharge summaries for 120,000 patients - many from practices that had stopped using the platform years earlier.
Russia's Sandworm hit Poland's power grid on the coldest night of the year, deploying a new wiper across thirty facilities including renewable plants and a major heat-and-power station. The attack failed to cause blackouts - but it damaged equipment beyond repair and proved that distributed energy is now a target.
Australia's spy chief named China's hacking units on a public stage, warned of infrastructure sabotage and put a dollar figure on espionage. Beijing called it a false narrative. The numbers suggest otherwise.

A piece of ransomware described as 'incredibly basic' hit a single software platform and grounded five European airports overnight. The problem wasn't the malware - it was the architecture.


A pro-Israel hacking group stole more than $90 million from Iran's largest crypto exchange - then destroyed it. The funds were sent to wallets nobody controls.
