AI overview

Anthropic said that over the past few months it used an unreleased internal research model to find critical vulnerabilities in widely used software such as browsers and operating systems, and identified five attack chains that can execute code remotely or bypass the lock screen. Among them, the Chrome-related findings have been assigned and fixed 62 CVEs, all of which are critical or high severity, with 13 being sandbox escapes; issues in Safari, Android, Windows, and Linux have also been reported to Apple, Google, and Microsoft respectively and fixed or patched upstream. Anthropic also said it has released a Claude Code plugin that embeds security scanning into the development workflow.
