    Omnigent is an open-source AI agent framework and meta-harness for orchestrating coding agents. Prior to 0.3.0, PUT /sessions/{session_id}/agent checks LEVEL_EDIT permission for a session but does not reject a bound shared or template agent whose agent.session_id is None. An authenticated user with edit access to a session can replace that shared agent bundle through omnigent/server/routes/sessions.py, add a stdio MCP server, and cause later sessions that use the shared agent to launch an attacker-controlled command through omnigent/tools/mcp.py. The command executes with the Omnigent runner process permissions and can expose files, credentials, workspace data, internal services, and runner availability. This issue is fixed in version 0.3.0.

    Rust Supply Chain Attack on arrayref: Significant Overlap with DPRK Campaigns

    Malicious versions of the arrayref Rust crate and other packages were found executing a backdoor at compile time, targeting developers through the Rust ecosystem. The campaign's infrastructure shows significant overlap with known North Korean (DPRK) supply chain attacks, including those involving the Mastra and axios packages. The attack is a compile-time supply chain compromise, meaning the malicious code runs during the build process rather than at runtime. This technique makes detection harder as traditional runtime security tools may miss it. The campaign is attributed to DPRK-linked threat actors based on infrastructure overlaps with prior operations. Developers using affected crates may have unknowingly executed malicious code during their build pipelines.

    Popular Rust Crates Compromised in Build-Time Supply Chain Attack

    Three legitimate Rust crates (arrayref@0.3.10, internment@0.8.7, append-only-vec@0.1.9) maintained by David Roundy were compromised by a threat actor who injected a malicious dependency called proc-macro1, a typosquat of the legitimate proc-macro2 crate. The malicious build.rs script executed automatically during Cargo builds, downloading and executing cross-platform malware targeting Linux, macOS, and Windows. The stage-2 backdoor profiled hosts, inventoried browsers, established persistence, and beaconed to a C2 at 23.254.165.112. The threat actor also yanked older legitimate arrayref releases to steer dependency resolution toward the malicious version. Socket's AI Scanner detected the attack on August 20, 2026, and the Rust Security Response Team removed affected releases and locked the maintainer account. Any system that built one of the malicious versions should be treated as potentially compromised, with credentials rotated and persistence mechanisms investigated.
