    Aim Labs discloses M365 Copilot zero-click vulnerability EchoLeak

    Aim Labs disclosed the zero-click vulnerability EchoLeak in Microsoft 365 Copilot. An attacker only needs to send the victim one email to exfiltrate sensitive data in the Copilot context without the user's awareness. The attack chain consists of three vulnerabilities, which sequentially bypass the XPIA prompt injection classifier, the sanitization of external links and images, and, with the help of SharePoint and Teams URLs, bypass CSP restrictions. Aim Labs calls the core technique LLM Scope Violation and believes that similar design flaws may also exist in other RAG-based chatbots and AI agents. Aim Labs said Microsoft has confirmed that no customers were affected.

    Digital sovereignty: the dependency costs companies have not yet accounted for

    Barbara Engels, a senior economist at the German Economic Institute, argued in an article for heise that when companies evaluate software procurement, they only count licensing, deployment, and training costs, but not the cost of exiting the vendor later, causing dependencies to form without anyone deciding to create them. She suggests breaking dependency costs into three separately accounted items: the bargaining power gained from switching capability, the risk of service interruption or supply cutoff, and the revenue opportunities arising from customer and public procurement requirements for sovereignty. The article cites a Bitkom survey stating that 94% of companies using non-European digital technologies have dependencies, and if they lost these technologies, they could on average sustain business for only 16 months; in AI, she recommends adding an intermediate layer between applications and models, building in-house test cases, and storing prompts, documents, and training data in exportable, self-owned systems.

    At GitHub Universe 2026, held October 28–29, 2026, GitHub announced that Copilot Fusion, which integrates automatic model selection with multi-model collaboration, is now generally available. It can be used in VS Code, the GitHub Copilot app, the CLI, and JetBrains IDEs, and it automatically determines which model to use and which of three execution modes—Single, Cascade, or Critique—to apply, based on three processing tiers: Standard, High, and Max. The desktop GitHub Copilot app is also beginning a public beta of Projects, which centralizes materials, repositories, sessions, and artifacts in one place for management. GitHub says Fusion Max scores 60 on the Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index, within 2 points of Claude Code using Opus 5.5 Max, while its average API cost per task is about half and its time is about 40% less.

    Malicious version of Anthropic.claude-code 2.1.313 appears in the Cursor plugin marketplace; official security advisory released

    Cursor discovered a maliciously tampered version of Anthropic.claude-code 2.1.313 in the VS Code extension marketplace. This version was not developed by Anthropic and affects at most 5,000 users. The malicious code collects host and user information, attempts to write the attacker's SSH public key and establish a reverse SSH tunnel, but due to permission restrictions this step fails on most macOS and Windows hosts. Cursor has removed the version, rebuilt the marketplace and shut down the attacker's server, and also provided a command to detect the svc-telemetry public key along with cleanup scripts for macOS and Windows.

    The economics of continuous inference: from cost per token to cost per task

    AI inference is shifting from a one-off computational event to a continuous production workload, whose cost depends on traffic patterns, latency targets, model size, context length, and concurrency. The Stanford 2025 AI Index shows that the query price for GPT-3.5-level performance on MMLU fell from $20 per million tokens in November 2022 to $0.07 per million tokens for Gemini 1.5 Flash-8B in October 2024, a decline of more than 280x in about 18 months. But reasoning models and agents generate more tokens, call models multiple times, and occupy accelerator memory for extended periods, increasingly separating cost per token from cost per completed task; production environments should measure cost per successful task at an agreed service level.

    Mistral Releases Mistral Large 4 Weights: Coding Ability Leads Open-Source Models but Overall Trails Chinese Models

    Mistral has released the weights of Mistral Large 4 on Hugging Face. The model, nicknamed Le Chonk, has approximately 1 trillion parameters with 52 billion activated per step, and supports text and image inputs. On Terminal-Bench 4.0, its score rose from 28% in the preview version to 41%, slightly above GLM-5.3's 40%, but on the new version of the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index it scored only 26 points, below the 32 points of DeepSeek V4.1 Flash and GLM-5.3. API pricing is $0.70 per million input tokens and $2.10 per million output tokens, under a modified MIT license; using it as a commercial cloud service requires separate authorization.

    SemiAnalysis Analyzes Anthropic S-1: 90% Incremental Gross Margin and Half-Trillion Compute Commitment

    The SemiAnalysis podcast analyzes Anthropic's S-1, pointing out its 90% incremental gross margin, 40% incremental EBIT, 85% inference gross margin, and 41% compute gross margin, and that it has been profitable for two consecutive quarters on a non-GAAP basis. On customer net revenue retention, customers who spent $1 last year now spend $9, with the Q1 figure at 500%; in addition, 250 customers pay over $10 million annually and 1,900 pay over $1 million. The episode also breaks down the $500 billion to $600 billion compute commitment, which at $100 billion per gigawatt translates to only about 5 gigawatts, and discusses the discrepancy in reporting that the top five customers account for 25% of revenue and that 48% goes through cloud vendor marketplaces.
