Threat Actors Are Posing as OpenAI, Anthropic and DeepSeek to Target Credentials and Secrets
GreyNoise observes scanners spoofing OpenAI, Anthropic, and DeepSeek crawler user agents to hunt leaked credentials and secrets.
GreyNoise is observing automated scanners that pose as the web crawlers of OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, and Fortune 500 companies. The scanners use forged user agents while requesting files where misconfigured web servers frequently leak secrets and credentials. This activity abuses trust in AI crawler traffic to discover exposed credentials for follow-on attacks.

Exploitation of Sangoma Switchvox flaw is underway (CVE-2026-9586)
Attackers actively exploit SQL injection flaw CVE-2026-9586 in unauthenticated Sangoma Switchvox endpoints, dropping reverse shells and second-stage cryptominer malware.
CVE-2026-9586, an unauthenticated SQL injection in Sangoma Switchvox SMB Edition 8.3, lets crafted HTTP POST requests execute arbitrary SQL against the backend PostgreSQL database. Horizon3 honeypots first saw exploitation on August 30, 2026 from IP 176.65.148.184, and dozens of additional source IPs have since joined with scanning payloads and second-stage malware that appears to be a cryptominer. The flaw was patched in Switchvox 8.4.0.2 on July 14, 2026; roughly 4,000 exposed instances exist, mostly in the United States, and exploitation is likely against most of them.
