What happened

A set of Microsoft Security Blog posts describing multiple high-impact threats and mitigation guidance: updated taxonomy of failure modes for agentic AI after a year of red‑teaming; several large npm supply‑chain campaigns (Red Hat “Miasma”, dependency‑confusion and typosquatting campaigns) that steal GitHub, cloud and CI/CD credentials and propagate by republishing packages; an analysis of The Gentlemen self‑propagating Go ransomware; a cryptojacking campaign abusing SEO poisoning, ScreenConnect and .NET utilities for GPU mining; and a multi‑stage Linux intrusion that leveraged an exposed F5
