Reminder if you might have been affected, rotate all tokens IMMEDIATELY, especially the GitHub CLI Authorized OAuth, which isn't as straightforward. Our team is here to help via the community discord or [email protected].

🚨 If you think you might be effected by the nx compromise please revoke the GitHub CLI Authorized OAuth App: github.com/settings/conne… Notably, this is the only way to revoke/rotate the tokens made by/known to that app. The next time you `gh login` you can reauth.

⚠️ A “hacking tool” on Go isn’t what it seems. The package pretends to brute-force SSH—but secretly sends stolen logins to a Telegram bot controlled by a Russian actor. The package is still on pkg.go.dev. Full report → thehackernews.com/2025/08/malici…
