Incident Details The story centers on a security consultant...
Critical Bug Could Expose 300,000 Ollama Deployments to Information Theft
A critical security flaw in Ollama, a popular tool for running large language models locally, puts around 300,000 deployments at risk of information theft, security researchers reported this week. The vulnerability allows attackers to access sensitive data from systems running Ollama. Researchers identified the issue in the software’s default configuration, which exposes an unauthenticated endpoint....

Rowhammer Attack Against NVIDIA Chips
A new rowhammer attack gives complete control of NVIDIA CPUs. On Thursday, two research teams, working independently of each other, demonstrated attacks against two cards from Nvidia’s Ampere generation that take GPU rowhammering into new—and potentially much more consequential—territory: GDDR bitflips that give adversaries full control of CPU memory, resulting in full system compromise of the host machine. For the…
Hackers Hate AI Slop Even More Than You Do
It's not just you. Scammers, hackers, and other cybercriminals are complaining about “AI shit” flooding platforms where they discuss cyberattacks and other illegal activity.
Iranian state-backed spies pose as ransomware slingers in false flag attacks
An Iranian state-sponsored espionage group is pretending to be a regular ransomware gang in a new wave of ransomware attacks targeting enterprises. APT group MuddyWater (aka Seedworm) is masquerading as the Chaos ransomware-as-a-service group to confuse incident response and mask its spying and cyber-sabotage, according to research by security vendor Rapid7. The attacks — geared toward stealing data rather than…
New malware turns Linux systems into P2P attack networks
Attackers have found a new way to turn Linux systems into stealthy supply chain distribution hubs that are resistant to takedowns. Researchers from Trend Micro have disclosed a new malware framework, dubbed Quasar Linux or QLNX, describing it as a modular Linux remote access trojan (RAT). But what sets the campaign apart is the malware using a P2P mesh capability…
Poisoned truth: The quiet security threat inside enterprise AI
As enterprises rush to deploy internal LLMs, AI copilots, and autonomous agents, most security conversations focus on familiar threats: prompt injection, jailbreaks, model abuse, and data exfiltration. But some security leaders argue a quieter risk deserves far more attention: what happens when the model’s understanding of reality itself becomes corrupted. This problem is broadly described as AI data poisoning, though…
Anthropic Mythos spurs White House to weigh pre-release reviews for high-risk AI models
The Trump administration is in early discussions about whether advanced AI models should be vetted before public release, according to reporting from the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and Axios. The conversations center on systems capable of facilitating cyberattacks, particularly models that could help users identify and exploit software vulnerabilities. Officials are considering several options, including formal pre-release…
AI finds 20-year-old bugs in PostgreSQL and MariaDB
Open-source databases are facing a bit of a memory problem as AI helps surface decades-old buffer overflow issues in widely used components. Security researchers have disclosed a set of high and critical-severity vulnerabilities affecting PostgreSQL and MariaDB, with two bugs reportedly tracing their roots back more than 20 years. At Wiz’s zeroday.cloud hacking event, researchers using the AI-powered security analysis…
