Cloud Credentials Stolen in LLMjacking Attack to Sell Access to Compromised Language Models

Cybercriminals have developed a sophisticated attack strategy called LLMjacking, which involves stealing cloud login credentials to access large language models hosted on cloud platforms. The goal is to sell access to these compromised models to other malicious actors. Attackers breach systems using vulnerable versions of the Laravel Framework, obtaining AWS credentials and gaining access to cloud environments. They then target local language models, validate keys, and integrate with open-source tools to monetize their efforts without detection. This type of attack can result in significant costs, estimated at over $46,000 per day, and can disrupt business operations. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tonyphoang/message
