New supply chain attacks called "slopsquatting" in AI coding attempts to leverage AI models tendency to hallucinate non-existent package names.

Research indicates roughly 20% of the sampled Python and JavaScript code samples recommended packages didn't exist.

Atomic and Exodus crypto wallets targeted in malicious npm campaign

A malicious npm package named pdf-to-office was discovered targeting cryptocurrency wallets. The package, posing as a PDF to Office converter, injects malicious code into locally installed Atomic and Exodus wallets. This attack modifies legitimate files to redirect crypto funds to the attacker's wallet. The campaign shows persistence, as removing the malicious package doesn't remove the injected code from the wallets. Multiple versions of both wallets were targeted, with the attackers adapting their code accordingly. This incident highlights the growing scope of software supply chain risks, particularly in the cryptocurrency industry, and emphasizes the need for improved monitoring of both source code repositories and locally deployed applications.

"When Let’s Encrypt, a free certificate authority, started issuing 90 day TLS certificates for websites, it was considered a bold move that helped push the ecosystem towards shorter certificate life times. Beforehand, certificate authorities normally issued certificate lifetimes lasting a year or more. With 4.0, Certbot is now supporting Let’s Encrypt’s new capability for six day certificates through ACME profiles and dynamic renewal at:

- 1/3rd of lifetime left
- 1/2 of lifetime left, if the lifetime is shorter than 10 days"

>OPSEC isn’t what happens before the real work. It is the real work that determines whether anything else becomes possible.<

The universe doesn’t give a fuck about your intentions. Neither does any state’s surveillance apparatus. Both operate on cold deterministic principles that render your revolutionary potential to ash the moment you treat OPSEC as optional.

Let me be painfully clear: your movement will collapse with mathematical certainty unless security is the foundation, not the afterthought.
