Four near-simultaneous credential-harvesting campaigns (May–June 2026) targeted open-source ecosystems — backdooring 5,561 GitHub repositories, poisoning 700+ Composer package versions, publishing malicious packages across npm/PyPI/Crates.io, and compromising 96 versions of Red Hat npm packages — to exfiltrate CI/cloud credentials, SSH keys, tokens, and secrets using GitHub Actions payloads, tag rewriting, ecosystem-specific execution hooks, and account takeover; organizations are advised to inventory secret exposure and rotate compromised credentials.
