The Datacenter Backlash Goes Bipartisan: Next Week's Midterms and the 2028 Buildout

SemiAnalysis analysis of how the November 2026 US midterms could affect datacenter buildout. About 75% of the 33.8 GW due in 2027 across the top 20 states is already under construction, but 43.5 GW of 2028 additions sit in 13 states with pending approvals. The biggest risk is a prolonged Texas TCEQ permit freeze. Texas holds close to 30% of 2028 GW, and nine of 20 nominees back a pause.

Was I wrong about open models & cyber risks?

Interconnects post in which Nathan Lambert revisits his claim that an open-weight Claude Mythos would have been survivable. He argues GLM-5.3 already crosses the capability threshold with little visible societal change, and quotes Rob Wiblin, Anthropic and Zvi Mowshowitz as examples of exaggerated warnings. He cites Epoch AI's Firefox exploit built with GLM-5.3, and treats the recent vulnerability surge as an ecosystem trend driven by AI capability and diffusion, not open versus closed models.

Trezor warns of suspected crypto-theft implant in hardware wallet

Trezor warns of a suspected crypto-theft implant in a Trezor Safe 5 sold by reseller CryptoBilis in Southeast Asia. An Indonesian buyer found an extra board with a cellular module and antenna between the main board and screen, apparently able to read the recovery phrase and send it over mobile networks. Trezor has not examined the device, advises moving funds to a new wallet for any CryptoBilis purchase since March 2026, and notes a similar Ledger implant was confirmed.

Trezor reveals Malaysian reseller sold wallet with spyware

Trezor says a user reported a Safe 5 wallet bought from Malaysian reseller CryptoBilis in August 2026 with a hidden board between the main board and screen, carrying a cellular module and antenna. The implant allegedly reads the screen, including the wallet backup, and sends it over a mobile network when plugged in. Trezor has not yet examined the device, has dropped CryptoBilis (9 October), and is replacing wallets bought since March 2026.

Israel Extradites Alleged Nomad Bridge Exploiter to US Over $2.8M Theft: Report

Decrypt report that Israel extradited Alexander Block (formerly Gurevich) to the US over about $2.8 million taken from the Nomad bridge in August 2022. A June 2022 update flaw let tokens be received without locking assets, and copycats then drained more than $186 million. Israel's Supreme Court held that exploiting a flaw the software permitted can still be unlawful intrusion. The FTC proposed a settlement with Illusory Systems in December 2025.

Trezor Warns CryptoBilis Buyers After Report of Hardware Implant in Safe 5

Trezor warned buyers of its wallets from reseller CryptoBilis (March 2026 onward) to move funds, after an Indonesian customer reported a hardware implant in a Safe 5 bought in August 2026. The report describes a board with a cellular module between mainboard and screen that reads the wallet backup and sends it over a mobile network. Trezor has not yet examined the device. It found no tampering in four other CryptoBilis units.

Binance Exploit: Latest Findings and Response

Chainalysis assesses the 29 October 2026 theft of about $6.4 billion from Binance hot wallets as the work of North Korean group TraderTraitor. Attribution rests on on-chain behavior, including real-time commingling with funds from the Bitget exploit, a Tornado Cash-funded operator wallet and signed authorizations that let a hot wallet run attacker code. About $2.8 billion was frozen. Laundering shows automation, with addresses receiving exactly 1 TRX before forwarding funds.

TeamViewer Flaw Could Let Malicious Hosts Take Over Support Technicians’ Machines

CVE-2026-111585 (CVSS 8.8) is an integer overflow in the remote-control screen processing of TeamViewer clients on Windows, macOS, Linux and Android. A malicious or compromised host can announce an oversized screen surface (for example 32768 by 32768 at 32 bpp), forcing a software decode path and an out-of-bounds write that crashes the viewer or runs code. Remedio's research shows a pointer overwrite routed to WinExec. Version 15.83 fixes it, along with CVE-2026-92372, CVE-2026-92374 and six local privilege escalation bugs.

An AIBOM is a machine-readable inventory of models, datasets, dependencies, AI services, agents and MCP servers, with evidence of origin, license, integrity and evaluation. The Endor Labs explainer walks through a worked CycloneDX example for a fine-tuned support assistant. It compares CycloneDX ML-BOM, SPDX 3.x, the OWASP AIBOM project and the May 2026 CISA/G7 guidance, and lists what an AIBOM cannot show: runtime behavior and agent actions.

Build specialized multimodal models with LFM3

LFM3 is Liquid AI's open-weight family of six ~2B-parameter models (text, vision-language, audio, omni and two d1 decision models), all branched from LFM3-1.7B-Base. The base model uses a tri-hybrid backbone of 13 gated short convolutions, 5 sliding-window attention layers and 6 global attention layers, pre-trained on 22T tokens with a 256K context. The post gives transformers snippets, benchmark comparisons against LFM2.5 and Qwen3.5, and a robotics fine-tuning example.

Stolen AI Reasoning Could Help China Build Cheaper Rivals

Compaction Smuggling is an attack found by Xint that bypassed OpenAI's August 2026 mitigations against stealing reasoning traces from proprietary LLM APIs. It encodes one model's reasoning inside a compaction and replays it to another model (for example gpt-4.1 or gpt-4o), which outputs it verbatim. OpenAI fixed it and paid a $6,000 bounty on 23 October 2026. The article ties it to distillation by Chinese labs, citing a September CISA warning.

Ethereum Devs Postpone Glamsterdam on Hoodi Over Contract Security Risks

Ethereum core developers postponed Glamsterdam on the Hoodi testnet on 22 October 2026, four days before the 26 October activation. ChainSecurity research showed EIP-8037 and EIP-8038 gas repricing can let a contract's failure path succeed where it used to revert, for example a fresh storage write costing 110,020 gas instead of 22,100. This enables "insufficient gas griefing", and ChainSecurity found 13 real-world cases.

Ethereum developers postponed the Glamsterdam hard fork on the Hoodi testnet (due 26 October 2026) after auditor ChainSecurity reported that the gas changes in EIP-8037 and EIP-8038 break assumptions in existing contracts. Gas can be refilled after a failed call and repricing alters call costs, so failure paths that used to revert can now complete, undermining insufficient gas griefing protections. ChainSecurity found 13 real-world examples and is in responsible disclosure.

Maxwell: A new kind of model that sits between code and hardware

Maxwell (Maxwell's Daemon) is doubleAI's first "code execution model" (CEM). It runs inside a live program, finds bottlenecks and emits faster machine code for the exact CPU or GPU, leaving the source untouched. Each rewrite ships with a machine-checked proof of semantic equivalence, built on a formalisation of Python. Early access is announced; the post gives no benchmark figures.

Broadcom Wi-Fi vulnerability leaves over 1.5 million Belgian gateways exposed

A Broadcom SDK flaw in the WPS code that reassembles fragmented EAP messages allows a buffer overflow and unauthenticated code execution over Wi-Fi, bypassing WPA2/WPA3 passwords. Quentin Kaiser of ONEKEY demonstrated it at Hexacon on 16 October 2026 against Orange Belgium and Proximus gateways, and published a fingerprinting script and YARA rule. Broadcom's 2018 patch was incomplete, it refused a CVE, and over 1.5 million Belgian gateways are exposed.
