"Cybersecurity researchers have alerted to a supply chain attack that has targeted popular npm packages via a phishing campaign designed to steal the project maintainers' npm tokens.

The captured tokens were then used to publish malicious versions of the packages directly to the registry without any source code commits or pull requests on their respective GitHub repositories.

The list of affected packages and their rogue versions, according to Socket, is listed below -

• eslint-config-prettier (versions 8.10.1, 9.1.1, 10.1.6, and 10.1.7)
• eslint-plugin-prettier (versions 4.2.2 and 4.2.3)
• synckit (version 0.11.9)
• @pkgr/core (version 0.2.8)
• napi-postinstall (version 0.3.1)

"The injected code attempted to execute a DLL on Windows machines, potentially allowing remote code execution," the software supply chain security firm said."

Hackers Can Remotely Trigger the Brakes on American #Trains and the Problem Has Been Ignored for Years

https://www.404media.co/hackers-can-remotely-trigger-the-brakes-on-american-trains-and-the-problem-has-been-ignored-for-years/

#cybersecurity

"Many trains in the U.S. are vulnerable to a hack that can remotely lock a train’s brakes, according to the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the researcher who discovered the vulnerability. The railroad industry has known about the vulnerability for more than a decade but only recently began to fix it.

Independent researcher Neil Smith first discovered the vulnerability, which can be exploited over radio frequencies, in 2012.

“All of the knowledge to generate the exploit already exists on the internet. AI could even build it for you,” Smith told 404 Media. “The physical aspect really only means that you could not exploit this over the internet from another country, you would need to be some physical distance from the train [so] that your signal is still received.”

Smith said that a hacker who knew what they were doing could trigger the brakes from a distance."
