What happened
A CyberScoop roundup highlights multiple active and emerging threats: ReliaQuest researchers detail DeepLoad, an AI-assisted credential-stealing campaign that weaponizes AI-generated code for heavy obfuscation, keystroke logging, persistence and re-infection. A Trivy supply-chain compromise is expected to spur a broad extortion wave and impact thousands of downstream victims after attackers published malicious packages. A GitHub leak of DarkSword components risks democratizing powerful iPhone/iOS 18 exploits, while law enforcement activity and attribution updates include an alleged RedLine inf
