Artificial intelligence companies have been working at breakneck speeds to develop the best and most powerful tools, but that rapid development hasn't always been coupled with clear understandings of AI's limitations or weaknesses. Today, Anthropic released a report on how attackers can influence the development of a large language model.The study centered on a type of attack called poisoning, where an LLM is pretrained on malicious content intended to make it learn dangerous or unwanted behaviors. The key finding from this study is that a bad actor doesn't need to control a percentage of the pretraining materials to get the LLM to be poisoned. Instead, the researchers found that a small and fairly constant number of malicious documents can poison an LLM, regardless of the s [...]
Market researchers have embraced artificial intelligence at a staggering pace, with 98% of professionals now incorporating AI tools into their work and 72% using them daily or more frequently, accordi [...]
Picture this scenario: An Anthropic Skill scanner runs a full analysis of a Skill pulled from ClawHub or skills.sh. Its markdown instructions are clean, and no prompt injection is detected. No shell c [...]
Just two months ago, researchers at the Data Intelligence Lab at the University of Hong Kong introduced CLI-Anything, a new state-of-the-art tool that analyzes any repo’s source code and generates a [...]
In the past two years, businesses have been trying to fit large language models (LLMs) into support, analytics, development, and internal automation like never before. Along with the increasing adopti [...]
GitHub confirmed on May 20 that a poisoned VS Code extension installed on an employee’s device gave attackers access to roughly 3,800 internal repositories at the Microsoft-owned code storage and au [...]
The same connectivity that made Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP) the fastest-adopted AI integration standard in 2025 has created enterprise cybersecurity's most dangerous blind spot. [...]
An attacker embeds a single instruction inside a forwarded email. An OpenClaw agent summarizes that email as part of a normal task. The hidden instruction tells the agent to forward credentials to an [...]
Slopsquatting represents an emerging supply chain threat made possible by AI hallucinations. As developers increasingly rely on AI coding assistants, they unknowingly grant cybercriminals access to th [...]
