The popular GitHub Action actions-cool/issues-helper has been compromised. Every existing tag in the repository has been moved to point to a single imposter commit that does not appear in the action's normal commit history. That commit contains malicious code that exfiltrates credentials from CI/CD pipelines that run the action.
StepSecurity has detected a new npm supply chain attack campaign using preinstall hooks to download the Bun JavaScript runtime and execute an 11 MB obfuscated payload. At least two SAP-ecosystem packages are confirmed compromised so far.
Hijacked maintainer account used to publish poisoned axios releases including 1.14.1 and 0.30.4. The attacker injected a hidden dependency that drops a cross platform RAT. We are actively investigating and will update this post with a full technical analysis.
Trivy Compromised a Second Time - Malicious v0.69.4 Release, aquasecurity/setup-trivy, aquasecurity/trivy-action GitHub Actions CompromisedVarun Sharma View LinkedIn March
On March 19, 2026, trivy โ a widely used open source vulnerability scanner maintained by Aqua Security โ experienced a second security incident. Three weeks after the hackerbot-claw incident on February 28 that resulted in a repository takeover, a new compromised release (v0.69.4) was published to the trivy repository. The original incident disclosure discussion (#10265) was also deleted during this period, and version tags on the aquasecurity/setup-trivy GitHub Action were removed. Trivy maintainers deleted the v0.69.4 tag and Homebrew downgraded to v0.69.3. The following is a factual account of what we observed through public GitHub data.

A week-long automated attack campaign targeted CI/CD pipelines across major open source repositories, achieving remote code execution in at least 4 out of 5 targets. The attacker, an autonomous bot called hackerbot-claw, used 5 different exploitation techniques and successfully exfiltrated a GitHub token with write permissions from one of the most popular repositories on GitHub. This post breaks down each attack, shows the evidence, and explains what you can do to protect your workflows.
