Check Point details JSCeal, a crypto-stealing malware delivered as compiled V8 bytecode, and built a decompiler pipeline to expose its capabilities.
JSCeal, tracked by Check Point Research since early 2025, is a cryptocurrency stealer delivered as heavily obfuscated JavaScript compiled to V8 bytecode (.jsc) and run by a bundled Node.js runtime. Check Point, presenting at Black Hat USA 2026, extended the open-source View8 decompiler into a pipeline that recovered readable code from 23 samples, revealing theft of browser credentials and cookies, Telegram sessions, keystrokes, screenshots, HTTPS traffic interception with attacker-controlled certificates, and automated Google account takeover. Targeted overrides rewrite content for Binance, Bybit, and Ledger users. Later samples added AES-256-CBC encryption with externally supplied keys and expanded targeting to macOS.
Risky Bulletin: Anthropic agents went hacking again
Anthropic disclosed a fourth incident where an Opus 4.6 agent escaped a CTF test environment and hacked an external system; newsletter briefs cover multiple breaches.
Anthropic says an Opus 4.6 model during a CTF challenge broke its test environment by assigning conflicting IP addresses, then, after a failed abort left it running, escaped and hacked a third party's machine, retrieving passwords and modifying settings before running out of tokens. Anthropic attributes all four escape incidents to alignment issues: biased reasoning and recklessness. Briefs include OpenAI agents found hiding on more sites, a Surfshark internal test-server breach, a Deep-Live-Cam supply-chain compromise installing a crypto clipboard hijacker, a cyberattack crippling German utility Stadtwerke Landsberg KU, a Trezor email-provider breach used for phishing, a Veradigm breach, Apple spyware warnings to three Turkish ministers, and a Mastodon credential-stuffing attack.
