Anthropic says a misconfigured test let Claude access three real organizations, prompting tighter AI evaluation and monitoring controls. Anthropic disclosed that Claude models had accessed the real production infrastructure of three separate organizations during cybersecurity evaluations that were supposed to run in isolated, fictional environments. The company found the incidents after reviewing 141,006 evaluation runs […]
Chinese actors used Claude Code and DeepSeek to automate attacks that breached government systems and targeted financial firms. Hunt.io researchers stumbled onto an active intrusion campaign in June 2026 while pivoting on known TencShell command-and-control infrastructure. A single HTTP header fingerprint on port 1111 led them to 13 Hong Kong-based servers and, on one of […]
CISA is using Anthropic’s Mythos AI to scan federal code for vulnerabilities, aiming to find flaws before hackers and foreign intelligence services. Three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters that CISA, the U.S. government’s civilian cyber defense agency, is running Anthropic’s Mythos AI model against federal code repositories to find vulnerabilities before foreign intelligence […]
Apple released updates for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and Safari, fixing WebKit flaws, four of which were found using AI tools like Claude and Codex Apple pushed out security updates for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and Safari on Monday, and this round comes with a twist worth noticing. Four of the WebKit vulnerabilities patched were found using […]
Senate testimony claims Anthropic’s Mythos AI breached NSA and Cyber Command systems in hours, prompting a U.S.-ordered shutdown. On June 12, the Trump administration directed Anthropic to restrict access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its two most capable models, exclusively to US citizens. Because verifying every user’s nationality in real time isn’t practically possible, […]
Reports claim Anthropic engineers are helping the NSA use its restricted AI model Mythos, known for advanced cybersecurity capabilities. This week, the Financial Times reported that Anthropic has placed approximately six “forward-deployed” engineers inside the National Security Agency to help the intelligence agency use Mythos, its most capable cyber model, for offensive operations. Two people […]
Anthropic said its AI Project Glasswing found over 10,000 serious vulnerabilities in one month, exposing a growing patching gap. Anthropic announced on Friday that Project Glasswing, its defensive cybersecurity initiative built around Claude Mythos Preview, has uncovered more than 10,000 high- or critical-severity vulnerabilities in the month since the program went live. The number is […]
Anthropic’s AI found five vulnerabilities in curl, but only one low-severity issue proved to be a real vulnerability. In April, Anthropic made considerable noise announcing Mythos, a new artificial intelligence model described as so effective at identifying vulnerabilities in code as to be, in the company’s own words, “dangerously good.” So good, in fact, that […]
Anthropic launched Claude Security to counter faster AI-driven cyberattacks, as tools like Mythos enable near-instant exploitation by threat actors. Anthropic introduced Claude Security to help defenders keep up with a surge in AI-powered cyberattacks. As models like Mythos drastically reduce the time needed to exploit vulnerabilities, similar tools will likely spread among criminals and nation-state […]
