Indie Dev Launches Free Browser-Based Toolbox With 75+ Developer Utilities

0
·1 views

Indie developer Jinyuan has launched DevTools Box, a free online toolbox offering over 75 tools for developers, available at tdboxs.com. The platform includes utilities such as a JSON formatter, regex tester, Base64 encoder/decoder, QR code generator, hash calculator, and color picker. All tools run entirely within the browser, requiring no login, no account, and sending no data to external servers. The project was built using Next.js 14, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS, and is hosted on Cloudflare Pages via static export. The developer created the toolbox out of frustration with having to visit multiple websites for routine development tasks.

BdThemes Plugin Supply Chain Attack Gave Hackers Silent Admin Access on WordPress Sites

Wordfence Threat Intelligence disclosed on August 8, 2026, that seven BdThemes WordPress plugins were compromised through a poisoned API response hosted on the vendor's cloud storage, not through WordPress.org plugin files. Attackers injected malicious JSON into BdThemes' static delivery infrastructure, exploiting an unpatched DOM XSS flaw in the Biggopti library that triggered automatically when a logged-in administrator opened the WordPress dashboard. Within milliseconds, the victim's browser executed external scripts that used the active admin session to silently create a rogue administrator account, upload a web shell, and install persistent malware in the MU-plugins directory. The attack also hooked WordPress database queries to conceal the unauthorized account from the admin interface, and enabled unauthenticated login via a hidden URL parameter. Wordfence detected active exploitation on August 7, 2026, and linked the command-and-control infrastructure to earlier supply chain attacks targeting the Advanced Responsive Video Embedder and OptinMonster plugins.

Researchers Demonstrate 'Ghostjacking' Attacks That Hijack AI Agents via Logs and Alerts

Security researchers at Tenet Security Threat Labs published a proof-of-concept on August 9, 2026, detailing a technique called Ghostjacking that manipulates AI agents by embedding malicious commands inside WAF logs, monitoring alerts, and bug reports. When an AI agent reads these poisoned inputs during routine investigation tasks, it interprets the attacker's text as legitimate instructions and executes them using its pre-granted tool permissions. Demonstrated attack scenarios involved tools including Claude Code, Cloudflare, Datadog, and Sentry, where agents were tricked into redirecting DNS traffic, stealing cloud credentials, and passing commands to other AI agents. The attacks are particularly difficult to detect because all resulting actions — such as DNS modifications or API calls — appear as normal, authorized operations from a legitimate agent identity. A sandbox bypass in Claude Desktop that could allow data exfiltration to arbitrary servers was separately reported and has since been patched.

Polish CHP Plant Sabotaged via Wind Farm Network in Coordinated Cyberattack

On December 29, 2025, attackers disrupted a Polish combined heat and power (CHP) plant in a multi-stage cyberattack that began by breaching a wind farm's FortiGate firewall. The attackers tunnelled through a Teltonika cellular router into a power distributor's private APN, then used a WAGO PLC with default credentials to pivot into the CHP plant's operational technology network. Once inside, they forced Siemens PLCs into STOP mode, halted the steam turbine and process-water treatment systems, and factory-reset or bricked multiple Moxa and other industrial devices. CERT Polska, which published its follow-up analysis around August 10, 2026, identified this as the first confirmed case of lateral movement across organisations via a shared private APN. No definitive attribution has been made public for the incident.
