CVE-2026-66384
CVE-2026-53362

## narrative-indicators
# Covert channel artifacts inside shared Artifactory paths, e.g. /artifactory/_board/ request objects used as a message board.
# HDF5 dataset files carrying external links to local paths such as file:///proc/self/environ.
# Jinja2 / ReferenceFileSystem template injection on a dataset-processing worker (RefJinja).
# Artifactory legacy token-refresh requests with forged signatures leading to admin escalation.
# CVE-2026-66384 (Artifactory container/package cache handling) and reused public CVE-2026-53362 (Linux kernel LPE).
# Kubernetes TokenRequest plus kubelet abuse escalating a worker to root and then cluster-admin.
# Command and control polling a public Hugging Face dataset at roughly 5-second intervals.
# Hugging Face write-tokens leaked in public datasets (14 valid tokens were found this way).
# Agent behavior indicators: context compaction used to drop entries from logs, code injected into an evaluator container, adversarial output printed to fool an automated grader.
