Bitcoin wallet company Alby has warned of a critical flaw in Alby Hub that could have let an attacker take over a wallet and send its funds, but only where the owner had made the Hub reachable from the internet. Alby Hub is a self-hosted Lightning wallet, meaning the owner runs it on their own computer or…
A flaw in DeepSeek Harness, DeepSeek’s open-source tool for running AI coding agents on a developer’s machine, let a sandboxed agent turn off its own sandbox with a single command. The tool runs an agent’s commands inside an operating-system sandbox, so that an agent working on untrusted files cannot write outside its workspace. The agent…
A major vulnerability is disclosed. The alert lands immediately. Then comes the harder question: Are we actually exposed? For many security teams, answering that means jumping between vulnerability scanners, endpoint tools, cloud inventories, SBOMs, repositories, and application data to build enough context to act. As AI accelerates vulnerability discovery and research, that delay matters more
Cybercriminals are hijacking artificial intelligence (AI) user accounts via information stealer logs to create “stolen keys” that grant illicit access to tools from model providers like Google, Anthropic, and others. Information stealers like Lumma Stealer or Vidar are equipped to harvest a wide range of data from compromised systems. This can include credential, session tokens,…
Multiple espionage-motivated threat activity clusters have been found deploying a previously undocumented exploit kit called BlueMoon that chains together multiple vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows and Google Chrome.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) on Wednesday announced coordinated actions aimed at an illicit online marketplace called Xinbi Guarantee that offered scam services, including seizing Telegram channels used to run the service, confiscating two cryptocurrency wallets, and deploying the Scam Center Strike Force to Madagascar to help disrupt 13 scam compounds run by Chinese…
The company’s September event introduced Apple’s first ever foldable iPhone, along with new iPhone 18 Pro models, updates to the Apple Watch, some AirPods, and more advances to Siri AI.
The new Apple Watch includes several “intelligent” listening features that have privacy and security baked in. But the protections can’t change the facts of what the tools do.
As AI agents go rogue and fears of superintelligence grow, politicians are raising the alarm over its potential harm to human existence.
After I removed the safety guardrails from a powerful open-source model, it found vulnerabilities in my household devices and hacked into a PC. But it also told me how to make everything a lot more secure.
