Ultralytics #AI model hijacked to infect thousands with cryptominer
The YOLO11 AI model (versions 8.3.41 and 8.3.42), an advanced object detection model commonly used for detecting and identifying objects in video streams in real time, was compromised in a supply chain attack. The trojanized versions drop XMRig (cryptominor) onto infected hosts.
Version 8.3.43 should address the #security issue, but it appears trojanized versions (8.3.45 and 8.3.46) may have also been released.
The model is #opensource and the current thought is the compromise originated from a malicious pull request.
