XCSSET infects Xcode projects by embedding in build phase scripts that execute on every compile, traveling with source code shared via repos or...

The Pass-the-Passkey exploit chain is embedded in two Microsoft-specific components: Windows 11's platform authenticator logging and Entra ID's server-side mechanisms.

Attackers now target developer tools and CI/CD pipelines directly, as in the ChainDrop worm's memory scraping and self-propagation via npm hooks.
