What happened
Multiple coordinated supply-chain and high-impact vulnerability events were reported: PyPI packages (notably PyTorch Lightning versions 2.6.2 and 2.6.3) and Intercom-client were trojanized to steal credentials; SAP-related npm packages were compromised in the 'Mini Shai‑Hulud' campaign; and other supply-chain incidents (Checkmarx) were disclosed. Researchers also detailed several severe/actively exploited vulnerabilities and attacks, including LiteLLM SQLi (CVE-2026-42208), critical GitHub RCE (CVE-2026-3854), Linux local privilege escalation ‘Copy Fail’ (CVE-2026-31431), LeRobot unauth RCE (C
