🔍 Shai-Hulud hits AI tooling via Tensorlake SDK

A malicious release of Tensorlake’s SDK version 0.5.144 on npm was flagged 11 minutes after publication and later removed. Researchers link the package to the credential-stealing Shai-Hulud worm, with code overlap to the ChainDrop variant. Reported theft targets include cloud credentials, GitHub Actions secrets, browser passwords, crypto wallets, and service-account tokens.

The case shows how AI-agent platforms remain exposed through the developer and CI/CD layer rather than the runtime sandbox itself. Installation scripts execute with host permissions, meaning a short-lived package compromise can still reach build runners, deployment secrets, and token stores before any isolation controls apply.
