Terabytes of credentials leaked in massive supply-chain attack

Terabytes worth of credentials, many belonging to the world’s biggest and most sensitive organizations, have been exposed in a supply-chain attack on LiteLLM, an open source tool that streamlines A- driven software development. Microsoft, Amazon, Cisco, Samsung, and Salesforce are only a handful of the entities whose access secrets were exposed.

The revelation was posted on Tuesday and Wednesday by security firms CloudSEK and Hudson Rock. CloudSEK said it found cloud keys, repository tokens, SSH keys, Kubernetes secrets, package publishing credentials, environment variables, and AlI provider keys that could allow attackers to gain access to more than 2,500 organizations.

The credentials were extracted during a 40-minute window in March while the victims used compromised versions of LiteLLM downloaded from the package’s official location in the Python Package Index repository. Hudson Rock said it made the discovery after analyzing a 195TB file that it obtained. Neither firm identified the source of the information.

Fairphone 4 3rd Party Battery Spotted for sale in the US!

It’s so lame that the 3rd party seller designated by Fairphone apparently doesn’t sell to US anymore. I’ve been wanting a battery replacement for my FP4 for years now and it’s finally here! Just put in my order today. Once it arrives, I can report back on the item if anybody cares.

SMEXHow governments design laws against you and call it cybersecurity - SMEXYou write something online. Nothing heroic. Nothing controversial. A joke about the electricity that never works or a sarcastic comment on a minister’s speech. Weeks later, your phone rings.
