Attackers Exploit Critical JFrog Artifactory Flaw to Mint Admin Tokens Days After Disclosure

Threat actors exploit CVE-2026-82329, a default-config authentication bypass in JFrog Artifactory, to mint administrator tokens days after patch release.

watchTowr reports that CVE-2026-82329 (CVSS 9.8), an authentication bypass in JFrog Artifactory patched in version 7.161.20 on August 28, 2026, is being actively exploited as of September 1. The flaw, in JFrog Access, lets unauthenticated attackers abuse a 'phantom' join key on default configurations to forge access and mint administrator-level credentials. Observed activity includes admin token generation, user, group, and token enumeration, and backdoor user creation in limited cases, raising supply chain poisoning and lateral movement risks for the widely used artifact repository.

13 Malicious Packagist Packages Target Unpatched iPhones to Steal Crypto Wallet Seeds

Trojanized Packagist themes inject JavaScript into Vietnamese streaming sites, exploiting unpatched iPhone WebKit and kernel flaws to install spyware and steal crypto wallet seeds.

Socket researchers found 13 malicious Composer theme packages across five vendor namespaces (including vsmov, vsphim, and ophimcms) that inject JavaScript into Vietnamese movie and comic streaming sites. On iPhones running iOS 18.4-18.6.x, the injected code fires a WebKit-to-kernel exploit chain using CVE-2025-31277 and CVE-2025-43529, pivoting through the GPU process and the AppleM2ScalerCSCDriver IOKit user client to gain kernel read/write. Since around August 12, 2026 the payload also steals cryptocurrency wallet seeds and mnemonics from Bitget, BitKeep, Bitpie, Phantom, Tonkeeper, Trust Wallet, and OKX, alongside keychain databases, Wi-Fi passwords, SMS, photos, cookies, and location history, uploaded via HTTPS to rotating C2 domains. The group is believed to be Vietnamese-operated, hosts exploits on Funnull infrastructure, and Apple patched the kernel escape flaw in iOS and macOS 26.1.
