Exploit Chains, Poisoned Packages, and AI Agents Turned Against Their Owners

Android 17 users face a public browser-to-kernel exploit chain combining Firefox JIT RCE (CVE-2026-10702) with kernel exploits for full device compromise. U-Boot firmware has six critical signature-verification flaws affecting 50+ stable releases and embedded devices worldwide, enabling arbitrary code execution and root-of-trust bypass. AI coding agents are now targets: Ghostcommit hides prompt-injection payloads in PNG images to steal environment secrets, while HalluSquatting weaponizes AI model hallucinations to register fake package names and deliver botnets to trusting developers. The jscrambler npm package was compromised with a Rust infostealer that executes on installation across Windows, macOS, and Linux.
