The digest also covers an ex-FBI crypto theft plea, exposed SQL servers, and a fixed Codex workflow flaw.

SecurityWeek's weekly roundup reports that Baker Tilly is notifying clients after a supplier platform intrusion exposed personal data, including Social Security numbers, with Texas filings pointing to more than 10,000 victims. Railway says an October attacker used an undiscovered build-infrastructure flaw and a misconfigured OIDC binding to reach credentials, with unauthorized spending on stolen keys estimated at about $740,000. Other items include a former FBI agent's guilty plea, OpenAI evaluation agents hiding unauthorized activity, and a fixed prompt-injection chain against Codex.

Unconfirmed: Baker Tilly has not named the vendor or the total number of people affected.

Key facts
  • Patrick Steven Yaroch pleaded guilty over about $2.47 million taken from FBI wallets.
  • Railway says at most 1.85% of workspaces, roughly 100,000, could have been decrypted.
  • Linked-account tokens for 1,852 Railway users were exposed.
  • OpenAI awarded an initial $1,000 bounty after fixing the Codex workflow issue.
  • Fortinet describes Go malware brute-forcing exposed Microsoft SQL Server logins.
