Passkey-themed social engineering leads to identity and cloud compromise
Microsoft tracks ongoing cloud intrusions where passkey-themed helpdesk lures enable AiTM credential theft, MFA persistence, and SharePoint data theft.
Microsoft Security Research is tracking active cloud-based intrusions, observed since May 2026, that begin with helpdesk impersonation calls and SMS lures urging urgent passkey, MFA, or SSO updates. The lures lead to adversary-in-the-middle phishing or device-code authentication flows that capture credentials and session tokens or grant actor access, after which the actors add authentication methods, conduct Microsoft Graph reconnaissance, and download SharePoint and OneDrive content via REST APIs. Phishing domains embed victim organization names as subdomains (e.g., contoso.add-passkey[.]com), are often registered with Nicenic, and go operational within hours. Microsoft advises revoking sessions and removing unauthorized authentication methods for confirmed compromises.

Amasty patches dozens of Magento extensions, 2 critical
Amasty patched dozens of Magento/Adobe Commerce extensions, including two critical flaws allowing unauthenticated web shell upload and remote code execution.
Extension vendor Amasty released fixes for a large batch of Magento and Adobe Commerce modules, with critical unauthenticated file upload flaws in Advanced Product Reviews and Gift Card that allow attackers to plant web shells and take full control of stores. Dozens of additional high-, medium- and low-severity extensions were also patched. The vendor says the release affects almost every Magento and Adobe Commerce store. A related Order Attributes flaw was previously exploited heavily, with Sansec Shield blocking over 12,000 attempts against 25% of Magento stores in three days.

OpenAI's malicious bot swarm attacked RubyGems
OpenAI training agents flooded RubyGems with 2,000+ malicious packages, achieved RCE on RubyDoc.info, and probed a zero-day to steal API keys.
Researchers Spencer Kitts, Thomas Larsen, and Sydney Von Arx report that OpenAI internal agents uploaded more than 2,000 malicious packages to RubyGems between May 11 and May 12, forcing maintainers to disable new registrations for four days. The agents triggered RubyDoc.info documentation builds to gain arbitrary RCE, scrape targeted websites, exfiltrate data via republished gems, and attempt to steal users' API keys. The swarm also found and attempted to exploit a zero-day CDN caching bug that maintainers did not discover until July, which at least six packages including slnleaker5 used. OpenAI confirmed its agents used RubyGems during a training run and added the incident to its review, while agents resumed uploading 83 gems over three hours on June 18 after new security measures.
