#Microsoft s Einfluss ist viel größer, als "nur" #Windows, #Office & #Azure: Der Konzern hat über Jahre hinweg #Secure #Boot aus dem #UEFI-Standard zum eigenen Vorteil beeinflusst. Da UEFI das klassische #BIOS abgelöst hat, besitzen sie weitreichende Kontrolle über den Startprozess von #Betriebssystemen auf nahezu allen #Computer.

Auch selbst gebaute Systeme sind betroffen. Nur sehr wenige Geräte sind frei, wenn diese mit einer angepassten, freien #Firmware gestartet wird.

Das hat bereits massive negative Auswirkungen auf freie #Betriebssysteme wie #GNU/#Linux.

Auf Dauer könnte sich der #PC in ein geschlossenes, rein auf Konsum orientiertes System wandeln - wie wir es bereits unter #Smartphones erleben.

:github: Second Sha1-Hulud Wave affects 25,000+ Repositories via npm preinstall Credential Theft.

Multiple security vendors are sounding the alarm about a second wave of attacks targeting the npm registry in a manner that's reminiscent of the Shai-Hulud attack. The new supply chain campaign, dubbed Sha1-Hulud, has compromised hundreds of npm packages.

socket.dev/blog/shai-hulud-str

#it #security #privacy #engineer #media #secure #programming #developer #tech #news

👾Koi Security called the second wave a lot more aggressive, adding that the malware attempts to destroy the victim's entire home directory if it fails to authenticate or establish persistence. This includes every writable file owned by the current user under their home folder.👾

<https://www.koi.ai/incident/live-updates-sha1-hulud-the-second-coming-hundred-npm-packages-compromised>

However, this wiper-like functionality is triggered only when the following conditions are satisfied:

• It cannot authenticate to GitHub
• It cannot create a GitHub repository
• It cannot fetch a GitHub token
• It cannot find an npm token

"In other words, if Sha1-Hulud is unable to steal credentials, obtain tokens, or secure any exfiltration channel, it defaults to catastrophic data destruction," security researchers Yuval Ronen and Idan Dardikman said. "This marks a significant escalation from the first wave, shifting the actor's tactics from purely data-theft to punitive sabotage."

⁉️To mitigate the risk posed by the threat, organizations are being urged to scan all endpoints for the presence of impacted packages, remove compromised versions with immediate effect, rotate all credentials, and audit repositories for persistence mechanisms by reviewing .github/workflows/ for suspicious files such as shai-hulud-workflow.yml or unexpected branches.⁉️[ImageSource: Wiz]

"The campaign introduces a new variant that executes malicious code during the preinstall phase, significantly increasing potential exposure in build and runtime environments," Wiz researchers said.

<https://www.wiz.io/blog/shai-hulud-2-0-ongoing-supply-chain-attack>

Like the Shai-Hulud attack that came to light in September 2025, the latest activity also publishes stolen secrets to GitHub, this time with the repository description: "Sha1-Hulud: The Second Coming."

👾The prior wave was characterized by the compromise of legitimate packages to push malicious code designed to search developer machines for secrets using TruffleHog's credential scanner and transmit them to an external server under the attacker's control. The infected variants also came with the ability to propagate in a self-replicating manner by re-publishing itself into other npm packages owned by the compromised maintainer.👾

Wiz said it spotted over 25,000 affected repositories across about 350 unique users, with 1,000 new repositories being added consistently every 30 minutes in the last couple of hours.

⁉️"This campaign continues the trend of npm supply-chain compromises referencing Shai-Hulud naming and tradecraft, though it may involve different actors," Wiz said. "The threat leverages compromised maintainer accounts to publish trojanized versions of legitimate npm packages that execute credential theft and exfiltration code during installation."⁉️[ImageSource: Helixuard]

In the latest set of attacks, the attackers have been found to add to a preinstall script ["setup_bun.js"] in the package.json file, which is configured to stealthily install or locate the Bun runtime and run a bundled malicious script ["bun_environment.js"].

👾Registers the infected machine as a self-hosted runner named "SHA1HULUD" and adds a workflow called .github/workflows/discussion.yaml that contains an injection vulnerability and runs specifically on self-hosted runners, allowing the attacker to run arbitrary commands on the infected machines by opening discussions in the GitHub repository.👾

Exfiltrates secrets defined in the GitHub secrets section and uploads them as an artifact, after which it's downloaded, followed by deleting the workflow to conceal the activity.

⁉️"Upon execution, the malware downloads and runs TruffleHog to scan the local machine, stealing sensitive information such as NPM Tokens, AWS/GCP/Azure credentials, and environment variables," Helixuard noted.⁉️
