Abandoned Sogou Zhuyin Update Server Used in Espionage

📡 Trend Micro reports that threat actors leveraged an abandoned Sogou Zhuyin update server to distribute multiple malware families, including C6DOOR, GTELAM, DESFY, and TOSHIS. The campaign, tracked as TAOTH and identified in June 2025, used hijacked automatic updates, spear-phishing, and fake cloud/login pages to target dissidents, journalists, researchers, and business figures across East Asia. The adversary registered the lapsed domain sogouzhuyin[.]com in October 2024 and exploited third-party cloud services like Google Drive to conceal callbacks and exfiltrate data.

Nx npm Package Hijacked to Exfiltrate Data via AI Toolchain

🛡️ Malicious updates to the Nx npm package were published on 26 August, briefly delivering AI-assisted data‑stealing malware to developer systems. The infected releases injected crafted prompts into local AI CLIs (Anthropic’s Claude, Google Gemini, Amazon Q) to locate GitHub/npm tokens, SSH keys, .env secrets and cryptocurrency wallets, then encoded and uploaded the harvest by creating public repositories under victims' accounts. StepSecurity says eight compromised versions were live for five hours and 20 minutes and that attackers subsequently weaponized stolen GitHub CLI OAuth tokens to expose and fork private organization repositories. Recommended mitigation includes revoking tokens and SSH/GPG keys, making exposed repos private, disconnecting affected users and following a full remediation plan.
