The top @noscript banner looks like a solid start.

I thought it was the usual DDOS spidering fuckery by Bytedance (TikTok) putting @noscript's support forums on their knees, but... APPLE ENGINEERING, WTF?!!! "Ambassador" Tim Cook, his new CEO & their minions embracing the dark side really hard 🪱🍏

And that's why the dependencies of @noscript + NoScript Commons Library amount to a grand total of 5 self contained, vendored source files.
There is a project on GitHub called Axios. Axios is extremely popular. It is used by millions upon millions of applications. Axios is a programming library that helps your JavaScript code make HTTP/S requests (communicate with websites). In simple terms, if you're a programmer doing something with JavaScript, and want to do stuff that communicates with a website in literally any capacity, people heavily recommend using Axios due to its simplicity. Using Axios you don't have to reinvent the wheel and do a bunch of work. All you need to do is import Axios into your code and you're off to the races. Someone (currently unknown) compromised Axios (currently unknown how) to deliver malware to people. When someone updates or installs Axios, Axios itself contains malware. What the malware does is (currently) unknown, but it is being reversed engineered by probably every malware analyst on the planet at this moment. In a few hours more details will emerge. Information is being exchanged in real time on social media and private communication platforms as I write this. Due to the size and popularity of Axios, it is unknown how many are impacted, it could be millions, it could be thousands, or if we're lucky, only hundreds of people or organizations will be impacted. If this is absolute worst case scenario, millions of organizations across the planet have been infected with malware which (currently) we do not understand. However, the likelihood of this is low. It appears Axios being compromised was detected quickly, potentially within minutes (or hours) of it being compromised to deliver malware. Additionally, the likelihood of every single Axios user updating Axios as soon as it was compromised to deliver malware is astronomically low. It is basically zero. The impact from Axios being compromised is devastating, the fallout from this will be a massive headache. This is unironically a malware nuclear missile and will likely be studied in the future.

New "S" gesture for Android in NoScript 13.6.x, along with other less visible improvements in policy enforcement, both in NoScript proper and in the NoScript Commons Library. noscript.net/getit
New @firefox for Android menu buries extensions deep down into a click pit. But now you can summon your @noscript quicly by sketching a "S" on the web page😎

Casual reminder about NoScript's mitigations going far beyond selective #JavaScript execution (on @firefox-based browser at least, such as @torproject & @mullvadnet). #ConsensualBrowsing
It couldn't work in the Tor Browser, neither in the @mullvadnet Browser, because of @noscript's noscript.net/usage/#lan-prot… (independent from #JavaScript blocking, which may help as well).

"We decided to move control of Wasm to @noscript, which bundled with Tor Browser & already manages #JavaScript & other security features. Wasm now works on privileged browser pages such as the PDF renderer, but NoScript will continue blocking the technology on regular websites"

Both disturbing and bizarre. Why is an administration that says it supports open-weight models and real competition in AI deleting government materials that support its position?

Your WAF can’t see this. Attackers are skimming payment data right now through unmonitored JavaScript—while your dashboards stay clean. The worst part? It’s happening in your customers’ browsers. See what every retailer must fix before Black Friday ↓ thehackernews.com/2025/10/wh…

Based on reports up to September 2025: Chrome: 6 zero-days exploited (e.g., CVE-2025-10585, per The Hacker News, SocPrime, and Google updates). Firefox: 3 zero-days exploited (CVE-2025-2857, CVE-2025-4918, CVE-2025-4919, per Bleeping Computer, The Hacker News, and Mozilla advisories). NoScript can help mitigate unknown vulnerabilities by blocking JavaScript execution, a common exploit vector (per NoScript docs and security analyses).
