A race in osanalyticshelperd’s crash-report creation allowed an attacker to combine sandbox-extension abuse, XPC message manipulation, and a non-atomic rename to place files (including a sudoers entry) as root on macOS, enabling local privilege escalation (CVE-2025-24277) and potential sandbox escape. The issue was fixed by restricting the XPC call with the entitlement com.apple.private.osanalytics.write-logs.allow. #osanalyticshelperd #CVE-2025-24277

Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) reports that adversaries have progressed from using AI for productivity to deploying novel AI-enabled malware that dynamically alters behavior during execution, exemplified by families like PROMPTFLUX and PROMPTSTEAL. The report documents state-backed and criminal actors misusing Gemini and other LLMs across the attack lifecycle and details mitigations Google has taken, including disabling assets and strengthening model and classifier safeguards. #PROMPTFLUX #PROMPTSTEAL
Socket’s Threat Research Team discovered 10 typosquatted npm packages that execute a multi-stage credential stealer via npm’s postinstall hook, using four layers of JavaScript obfuscation, a fake CAPTCHA prompt, IP fingerprinting, and a downloaded 24MB PyInstaller data_extracter binary to harvest credentials across Windows, Linux, and macOS. The campaign’s packages (published July 4, 2025) accumulated over 9,900 downloads, contact the npm registry was made for takedown, and the actor registered packages under the alias andrew_r1 (parvlhonor@gmx[.]com). #data_extracter #andrew_r1
