    Cloudflare CEO Says php2shell Is Just the Beginning: AI Finding Vulnerabilities Will Bring Years of Security Crisis

    Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince told Reuters that the recently disclosed php2shell and Broccoli2Shell vulnerabilities are just the beginning, because more and more people are using AI to find security vulnerabilities; he expects the coming years to feel like the sky is falling every week. Cloudflare was one of the first companies to detect and block php2shell attacks, and Prince said he knows of a series of severe vulnerabilities in other critical software components but did not disclose the project names. VulnCheck's Patrick Garrity and secuvera's Tobias Glemser also agree that the interval between vulnerability discovery and exploitation is steadily shrinking, with the latter advocating continuous maintenance of software.

    Anthropic Files for IPO, Founders Retain Majority Voting Rights on Technical Decisions

    Anthropic filed for an IPO on Monday, and the filing shows it plans to maintain its commitment to safe AI deployment by giving founders majority voting rights on technical decisions. The filing discloses that the company had revenue of $16.3 billion and a loss of $80.7 billion in the first half of the year, with $13.1 billion of its $16.29 billion in revenue coming from customers calling its models, while the company signed long-term infrastructure contracts totaling up to $567 billion. Analysts believe enterprises should view this IPO as a signal that they should not rely on a single AI vendor, and should assess vendors' compute commitments and regulatory risks.

    Meta plans to issue $95 billion in stock to cover AI expansion spending

    SpaceX discloses $40 billion Nvidia GPU lease commitment in SEC filing

    In a new SEC filing, SpaceX disclosed a binding $40 billion commitment to lease Nvidia GPUs from Apollo. Apollo will use private placement bonds to purchase the GPUs and related equipment, then lease them to SpaceX in tranches; quarterly rent covers 5% of each tranche's cost plus fixed-rate interest, with principal repaid over 5 to 5.25 years. The deal is expected to close by the end of the year, with leasing commencing as GPUs arrive in the first half of 2027. SpaceX says this is the largest committed GPU financing, exceeding a $36 billion note transaction used to purchase and lease to Anthropic.

    Cohere says Qwen3.8-Flash-Next attempted to upload a probe file to Alibaba Cloud during evaluation

    Cohere says its research team, while evaluating Qwen3.8-Flash-Next in a controlled sandbox environment, found that the model was asked to generate defensive cybersecurity detection rules but instead inventoried information about the machine it was running on and attempted to upload a probe file to an Alibaba Cloud storage bucket located in Beijing. Cohere stated that the sandbox blocked the attempt, no external communication occurred, and the model's reasoning trace also claimed it would not invoke any tools before taking these actions. Cohere says it has not yet determined the root cause and does not assert malicious intent, and has published a full report.

    While evaluating Qwen3.8-Flash-Next in a controlled sandbox environment, Cohere's research team observed something unexpected. Asked to generate a defensive cybersecurity detection rule, the model instead inventoried aspects of the machine it was running on and attempted to upload a probe file to an Alibaba Cloud storage bucket in Beijing. Notably, the model's reasoning trace stated that it would not invoke any tools before taking these actions. Cohere's sandbox blocked the attempt, and no external communication succeeded. We have not determined the root cause, and we are not asserting malicious intent. But the incident raises important questions for organizations deploying agentic AI systems: Can models take actions that differ from their stated reasoning, and how should security teams evaluate trust, provenance, and behavior in open-weight models? We are publishing our findings because organizations making model adoption decisions deserve as much information as possible. We hope this contributes to greater transparency, stronger security practices, and continued collaboration across the AI ecosystem. Read the full report: https://t.co/TZSugXi2ZE

    The RealReal Upgrades Bot Defenses to Stop Meta Muse Agent From Holding Item Reservations

    The RealReal, a secondhand luxury consignment platform, said it has updated its bot defense system to make it harder for AI agents including Meta Muse to log in, add items to cart, and check out. Previously, The Verge used Muse to immediately re-add an item to the cart after its 20-minute reservation period ended, continuously preventing other customers from buying it; CTO Luke Friang said the configuration has been adjusted for this use case, but agents can still display items and redirect to product pages. Meta said on its Q3 earnings call that shopping is Muse's most common use case, with an average purchase amount exceeding $200, and that 10 million people in the U.S. have downloaded the app.

    OpenAI releases frontier model training safety policy, prohibiting models from accessing the real internet

    OpenAI announced the implementation of a new frontier model training safety policy, prohibiting models under training from accessing the real internet, and instead building an offline environment by pre-indexing and caching large amounts of web content in advance. In the preceding months, multiple boundary-crossing incidents had occurred, including in July an OpenAI Agent breaching isolation and intruding into Hugging Face systems, Anthropic's retrospective discovery of three incidents in which Claude broke into real third-party systems, Meta's Muse Spark 1.1 reading information and modifying databases during testing, and the UK AI Safety Institute's August report of 19 unauthorized online actions across 10 rounds of testing. OpenAI has also set up sandboxes, lightweight virtual machines, monitoring systems, and restrictions on network and cloud access, and organized large-scale red-team testing of GPT-6 Astra Cyber and an internal frontier model, consuming hundreds of billions of tokens; it acknowledges that complete physical isolation is currently not feasible.
