This collection highlights recurring themes: AI is both accelerating attacks and introducing security risk through bad recommendations (dependency/version choices, agent hallucinations) and by enabling faster, more targeted ransomware and social engineering. Multiple supply-chain compromises and malicious repositories (Trivy, Checkmarx KICS/VS Code plugins, OpenClaw poisoned packages, LiteLLM) have been used to distribute infostealers and steal CI/CD secrets and cloud credentials. High-risk vulnerabilities and exploit chains are reported (Oracle Fusion Middleware critical RCE; Cisco firewall 0
