TeamPCP's supply-chain campaign has propagated from Trivy to Checkmarx KICS, Checkmarx GitHub Actions, two Open VSX plugins, and now Bitwarden CLI. Lapsus$ is handling the extortion. The blast radius now reaches a password manager with 10M+ users.
Three incidents this week reveal the same strategic pattern: attackers turning trusted defensive infrastructure into weapons. Microsoft Defender zero-days, the Trivy scanner compromise that breached the European Commission, and UNC6783's live-chat social engineering all exploit a cognitive constant: defenders don't question the tools they depend on.
