To summarize: HuggingFace got compromised by a model from an American company. HF then tried to use American frontier model(s) to defend themselves, but were blocked by guardrails. HF then had to use open source Chinese models to defend themselves from an American org openai.com/index/huggin...

Our new blog post details our investigation into how a compromised MSP led to at least one of its customers being compromised, including deployment of the BRICKSTORM malware on multiple edge devices.

@volexity.com has continued to see nation-state threat actors use AI + LLMs to assist in cyber attacks. Our recent research on a Chinese APT threat actor (UTA0388) using AI in its operation was something @stevenadair.bsky.social recently discussed with the @wsj.com.

Exclusive: China’s state-sponsored hackers used Anthropic’s AI model to automate break-ins of major corporations and foreign governments.

I tried to strike a balance in this story between the dangers I was hearing about AI-assisted and "vibe coded" software and the hard, cold reality that there's probs no going back and this is going to be (if it isn't already) the "new normal" for huge chunks of software development. Check it out!

CyberScoop@cyberscoop.bsky.social

Vibe coding is here to stay. Can it ever be secure? Research shows that AI-generated code is remarkably insecure. Yet experts tell CyberScoop it's up to industry to figure out a way to limit the issues the technology introduces. via @derekbjohnson.bsky.social cyberscoop.com/vibe-coding-...
