From Langflow to Monero: Inside CVE-2026-33017 Cryptominer
We tracked a cryptocurrency-mining campaign exploiting CVE-2026-33017, which revealed how threat actors are now scanning exposed AI application infrastructure for their next foothold.
A solo Russian-speaking threat actor ran a 5-year Telegram channel and, starting September 2025, used AI to automate its content, credential theft, and a cryptocurrency fraud scheme targeting American audiences.

I think we can all agree that artificial intelligence has evolved from innovative projects into a business reality. New use cases emerge daily as employees experiment with generative AI tools, and organizations increasingly integrate AI into business processes.
A pre-authentication remote code execution (RCE) chain in Oracle PeopleSoft PeopleTools abuses the Integration Broker's PSIGW gateway to execute code inside the application server's Java virtual machine (JVM), evading behavioral and network sensors.
Cybercriminals hijacked Google Ads searches for popular AI developer tools to funnel over 2,000 victims toward malicious download pages before quietly moving their operation onto claude.ai's own platform, turning the trusted domain into a delivery mechanism for credential-stealing malware.
TrendAI™ integrates Anthropic's Claude Compliance API into TrendAI Vision One™ through two collectors that bring AI-aware visibility and detection to Claude Enterprise usage: one keeps all data inside the environment, while the other feeds TrendAI Vision One™ for deeper correlation and compliance.
This year’s Pwn2Own competition in Berlin revealed just how much of the AI stack remains exposed -- and the gap between what these tools promise and what they can withstand point to the fragile security foundations underneath.
Two separate Russia-aligned campaigns are still exploiting the WinRAR flaw CVE-2025-8088 against Ukrainian organizations nearly a year after it was patched, showing how unmanaged software keeps an exploited entry point open long after the fix ships.
47 zero-days fell at Pwn2Own Berlin 2026 for US$1,298,250 in payouts. TrendAI™ was on the ground all three days — here's what we saw.
Today, most organizations already have a broad range of modern security solutions in place, yet many still struggle with a lack of meaningful visibility. The challenge is no longer collecting more security data.
TrendAI™ Research analyzed an intrusion where threat actors used the EtherHiding technique to route ClearFake payload delivery through smart contracts on the BNB Smart Chain testnet. The attack chain ended with two simultaneously deployed stealers, SectopRAT and ACRStealer alongside an on-chain execution tracker that confirmed each victim compromise in real time.
