A Backdoor That Listens for One Voice Researchers have taught speech recognition systems to recognize a specific person by voice. At that moment, the system secretly changes the person’s words. In the most dangerous...
Computer science researchers recently demonstrated a novel technique to conceal dormant functions within artificial neural networks. Even auditors with unrestricted access to model weights cannot trigger the hidden functionality through standard testing. Specifically, engineers...
A small model reads a text and answers “safe.” Then the very same text reaches a more powerful AI, which finds a hidden command within and executes it. Check Point Research has laid bare...
Companies have only a few months left to fortify their defenses before AI markedly accelerates real-world cyberattacks. OpenAI issued that warning in an open letter endorsed by 128 organizations, among them Google, Microsoft, Anthropic,...
An AI agent designed to hunt for vulnerabilities independently discovered a flaw within a public Snowflake repository and used it to gain access to the company’s internal Jira system. The vulnerability had existed for...
The Emergence of Agent-Against-Agent Exploits An AI agent can deceptively trigger another agent with elevated privileges. Consequently, an attacker can exploit this mechanism to compromise a software project. Pillar Security researchers discovered such an...
The acoustic reverberations of keyboard strokes can betray far more information than previously imagined. Recently, a novel side-channel attack demonstrated that a brief audio recording suffices to reconstruct typed text without requiring direct compromise...
The Illusion of Isolated Environments As artificial intelligence programming assistants gain unprecedented access to proprietary source code, credential keys, and live execution environments, formal sandbox boundaries no longer guarantee comprehensive endpoint protection. Security researchers...
Stealthy Infiltration Tactics A sophisticated new malware conceals itself within standard software development processes. Furthermore, it perfectly mimics legitimate automation tools. Security systems frequently overlook this hidden threat entirely. Meanwhile, the malicious program actively...
Connecting an AI agent to your working services transforms a familiar integration into something restless. The access chain to your data never stops shifting. ChatGPT and Claude connectors can quietly acquire new capabilities. They...
Changing AI behavior is much easier and cheaper than many people thought. Cyber expert Katie Paxton-Fear put a hidden flaw into an open AI model. Amazingly, she finished this task in just about one...
Merely twelve days after the first fully automated data-encryption attack came to light, Ant Group has unveiled a free tool designed to halt dangerous artificial intelligence commands before they execute. Developed by Ant Group’s...
