π North Korean Developer Gains Access to Waves Protocol Codebase
#NorthKorea #WavesProtocol #CyberSecurity #Malware #SoftwareDevelopment #SupplyChainDefense #Hacking #ITOutsourcing #CodeReview #WalletSecurity
According to PANews, a North Korean developer has reportedly gained elevated access to the Keeper-Wallet codebase of the Waves Protocol. The account, identified as 'AhegaoXXX,' has been pushing updates to a dormant codebase since May 2025. This account is linked to a North Korean IT outsourcing organization. A code review revealed that one of the updates included a feature that could send wallet logs and runtime errors to an external database, potentially compromising mnemonic phrases and private keys. Although this branch has not been merged, the attacker managed to publish six outdated malicious NPM packages by controlling the account of former Waves engineer Maxim Smolyakov.
Security reports indicate that this incident marks a shift in North Korean hackers' tactics from ordinary outsourcing infiltration to direct control of codebases. It is recommended that development teams enhance supply chain defenses, including auditing contributor permissions, cleaning up dormant accounts, and monitoring repository redirects. While the number of affected software downloads remains low, Waves users updating Keeper-Wallet face the risk of credential leaks.#NorthKorea #WavesProtocol #CyberSecurity #Malware #SoftwareDevelopment #SupplyChainDefense #Hacking #ITOutsourcing #CodeReview #WalletSecurity

π French Parliament Rejects Proposal on Bitcoin Mining Using Excess Energy
#FrenchParliament #BitcoinMining #ExcessEnergy #NuclearEnergy #SurplusElectricity #EnvironmentalConcerns #ProposalRejection #Cryptocurrency #France #EnergyStrategy #BTC
According to PANews, the French National Assembly recently rejected a proposal concerning Bitcoin mining. The amendment suggested exploring the use of France's surplus electricity for Bitcoin mining to optimize the operation of the nuclear energy grid. However, the proposal was dismissed without discussion due to procedural issues, specifically citing Rule 98 of the parliamentary procedures.
Had it been approved, France would have joined El Salvador and Bhutan as one of the few countries incorporating Bitcoin mining into their national energy strategies. Analysts indicate that similar proposals are unlikely to be resubmitted in the near term, as Bitcoin mining is still viewed as an environmental threat in France. The parliament clarified that the rejection was solely based on the proposal's format, suggesting that a more concise amendment could be submitted in the future.#FrenchParliament #BitcoinMining #ExcessEnergy #NuclearEnergy #SurplusElectricity #EnvironmentalConcerns #ProposalRejection #Cryptocurrency #France #EnergyStrategy #BTC

According to Odaily, a Cybernews research team has revealed a significant data breach involving 16 billion login credentials from major online service providers, including Apple, Google, and Facebook. The largest single database in this breach contains 3.5 billion records. The exposed data was primarily found through unencrypted Elasticsearch or object storage instances and includes access tokens, session cookies, and account metadata stolen by information-stealing malware.
This breach poses a severe threat to the cryptocurrency industry, as attackers could exploit the leaked credentials to take over accounts, particularly those linked to custodial wallets or associated email platforms. The risk is heightened for wallets that allow mnemonic phrases to be backed up to cloud services. Security experts advise users to update their passwords immediately, enable two-factor authentication, and avoid storing recovery phrases in insecure digital environments.
The identities of the original data holders remain unclear, but researchers have confirmed that some databases may belong to cybercriminal organizations.#DataBreach #Cybersecurity #LoginCredentials #InformationSecurity #Cryptocurrency #PasswordSecurity #TwoFactorAuthentication #Malware #Elasticsearch #CloudSecurity
