Hackers disrupt refrigeration systems at European supermarkets

Attackers remotely changed temperature settings, shut down units or triggered defrost on refrigeration systems at more than 115 supermarkets in Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, Luxembourg, Ireland and Estonia. Affected chains include Ahold Delhaize, Carrefour, ICA, Coop, SuperValu and Spar Colruyt. Vendor Sabcobel's director said the attacker used the same vulnerability as last month's attacks in France on Danfoss AK-SM/AK-SC and Copeland/Dixell XWEB controllers; a software update alone is not enough.

OpenAI Proves ETH Is False, and Crypto Twitter Has Questions

Decrypt reports that OpenAI published a 67-page paper (dated 17 October 2026, revised 25 October) claiming its AI found a deterministic subexponential-time algorithm for counting 3-SAT solutions, which would refute the Exponential Time Hypothesis. The proof was formalized in Lean. Impagliazzo, Paturi and Ryan Williams are reviewing it independently and say this is not certification. Anthropic posted a Claude-credited 3-SAT paper on 26 October.

How I Vibe Coded My Smart TVβ€”And Claude Killed It

A Decrypt writer asked Claude to install Free My TV, an open-source launcher for LG webOS, on a TV rooted since 2023. Claude reviewed the install code and built the package. It then had the user enable Developer Mode, which wiped the Homebrew Channel and ad-free YouTube. Claude restored both apps but not root. Its safeguards then flagged the re-rooting research and offered a switch from Opus 5.5 to Opus 4.8.

Zcash Developer Zakura Proposes Fix to Stop Quantum Computers Linking Shielded Swaps

Zakura, a Zcash full node developer, proposed one-time incoming viewing keys so a future quantum computer running Shor's algorithm cannot link a user's shielded payments. The target is NEAR Intents swaps, which post a shielded refund address on a public chain. The fix needs no network upgrade and uses private information retrieval for seed restores. Wallets such as Vizor can add it within weeks.

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.

Zcash developers plan a fix to keep ZEC swaps private from future quantum computers

Zakura, a newer version of the Zcash node software, plans to give each ZEC swap through NEAR Intents its own viewing key. Today a refund address posted on NEAR's public chain shares one viewing key with the whole account, so a future quantum attacker running Shor's algorithm could link the account's full payment history. Spending keys stay with the user, and private information retrieval lets wallets find refunds without revealing which addresses they check. Wallets such as Vizor could ship it within weeks.

Satoshi-era bitcoin faces a bigger quantum threat after Google’s new Willow breakthrough

CoinDesk reports Google's Science paper showing its Willow chip prepares "magic states" with about 40x fewer errors (about 99.99% fidelity, but only about 8% of attempts survive post-selection) using a method called cultivation. It explains why this lowers one hardware bottleneck for a Shor's-algorithm attack on Bitcoin's ECDSA keys, but does not make an attack 40x cheaper. It also separates coins with permanently exposed public keys (early Satoshi-era outputs, which an offline attacker can target) from hash-hidden keys, where the attacker must race the spend. The article cites Google's March estimate of under 500,000 physical qubits and about 500,000 reliable magic states per second for a roughly nine-minute attack.

Tree Appreciator

Simon Willison describes another game experiment, this time in the Claude iPhone app in chat mode rather than Claude Code. He prompted Claude Opus 5.5 Max to build a three.js game called "Tree appreciator" with two algorithmically generated trees and a mechanic based on appreciating their differences, and added "think hard about how to make sure it is both fun and beautiful". After about 3 hours 7 minutes of work it returned a spot-the-difference game with music, animation and achievements. He notes that simply telling Opus 5.5 to "make sure it is fun" works surprisingly well.

ERC-8443: Quantum Bridge Shield

Draft ERC from Quantova Inc proposing a "Quantum Bridge Shield" for Ethereum bridges. A committee signs the Merkle root of each message batch with RFC 8554 LMS hash-based signatures instead of ECDSA/BLS keys that Shor's algorithm can break. The guard contract requires a strict majority of distinct unfrozen keys, records used leaves, freezes any key that signs a leaf twice, binds digests to domain, chain, guard and epoch, and applies a 60-second delay. The post gives gas costs (LMS W4 height-10 verification about 205k gas, a LayerZero packet 128,683 gas, worst-case rotation 12.44M gas under the EIP-7825 cap) and cites a NioLabs assessment with no critical or high findings. It is relevant as a worked post-quantum migration design for bridge key custody, including hybrid ECDSA+LMS mode and stateful-signature pitfalls such as leaf reuse and rollback.

A look at the math that OpenAI claims computes faster Fourier transforms

A blog post examining the "faster Fourier transform" claim in OpenAI's released batch of AI-generated mathematics papers (main.pdf). It explains the Cooley-Tukey FFT and big-O notation, then argues the result is a galactic algorithm: constants around 10^100, and it assumes exact arbitrary-precision complex arithmetic that no real computer provides. It cites the Morgenstern (1973) and Ailon lower bounds, and uses the same critique on a claimed O(n^2.25) matrix multiplication result to argue that AI is amplifying theoretical CS's detachment from actual computation.

Quantum-resistant signing on AWS, Part 2: Enforce your ML-DSA algorithm policy with SCPs and IAM

Explains how to turn a cryptographic algorithm policy (approve ML-DSA-65/87, exclude ML-DSA-44) into enforceable AWS controls using SCPs, IAM policies, permission boundaries and KMS key policies. The key lever is the kms:KeySpec condition key (kms:SigningAlgorithm can't distinguish variants, since all use ML_DSA_SHAKE_256), applied to CreateKey, ReplicateKey, Sign, Verify and GetPublicKey. It also covers surfaces without algorithm condition keys (AWS Private CA, ACM import, IAM server certificate upload, ELB TLS) via provisioning pipelines plus CloudTrail and AWS Config drift detection, and the default-allow risk of deny-lists.

Post-quantum authentication: Why organizations should start testing certificate ecosystems now

Microsoft Security Blog post arguing that post-quantum cryptography planning must extend beyond encrypted-data confidentiality to authentication and certificate ecosystems, since larger PQC certificate chains and new algorithms like ML-DSA-87 can break PKI workflows, HSMs, and legacy infrastructure. It details Microsoft's PQC TLS Pilot Program, launched August 27, 2026, which lets approved certificate authorities (ComSign, DigiCert, HARICA, IdenTrust, Sectigo, Shanghai Electronic Certification Authority, SSL.com) test ML-DSA-87 certificate issuance under the Microsoft Trusted Root Program, plus Windows 11 builds (KB5101681, KB5101684) that support evaluating ML-DSA certificates via Schannel in non-production environments. It lays out a six-step readiness plan: inventory certificate dependencies, map trust relationships, assess vendor roadmaps, identify long-lived infrastructure, build test environments, and plan a multi-year migration.

From Algebra to Noise: Why Post-Quantum Cryptography Looks Different

OpenZeppelin Security's technical explainer on why post-quantum cryptography looks so different from classical crypto: Shor's algorithm exploits the abelian hidden-subgroup structure underlying RSA, Diffie-Hellman, ECDSA, EdDSA and pairing-based schemes, while Grover's algorithm only halves the effective security of hashes and symmetric keys (256-bit hashes stay at a comfortable 128-bit level). It then walks through NIST's finalized lattice/hash-based PQC standards β€” ML-KEM (Kyber) for key establishment, ML-DSA (Dilithium) for general signatures, SLH-DSA (SPHINCS+) as a conservative hash-based backup, plus future Falcon/FN-DSA and code-based HQC β€” mapping each to blockchain use cases and covering real deployment (Starknet's Falcon-512 Cairo account contracts), Ethereum account-abstraction/hybrid-signature migration paths, Bitcoin's UTXO/consensus constraints, Ethereum's LeanSig consensus-signature research, and a concrete institutional crypto-asset-inventory and PQC audit checklist.

From Concept to Context Engine: How Wiz Built AI-Powered Data Discovery

Wiz describes the evolution of its public bucket scanner into an AI-powered "context engine" for data security posture management (DSPM): a multi-agent pipeline where lightweight models triage files and larger models perform deep content analysis, iteratively learning bucket-specific patterns to find sensitive data that regex-based scanners miss. The production system adds structured severity scoring, synthetic/test-data filtering, algorithmic file clustering for scale, and now powers classification across cloud storage, cloud drives, endpoints, and Wiz's Red Agent attack-simulation findings. A one-week scan of public buckets using the engine surfaced over 2,700 sensitive data findings, including correlated credential/schema/export file sets that regex tools would treat as unrelated.

Beyond slop, taste, and AI moral panic: What social science tells us

An a16z essay arguing that "AI slop" panics and debates over machine "taste" recur historically (from 18th-century Grub Street pamphleteers to pulp fiction and blogging), and that social science can disaggregate "taste" into distinct mechanisms: Watts and Salganik's music-lab experiments showing hit success is socially contingent rather than quality-driven; Ron Burt's brokerage research showing innovation comes from occupying "structural holes" between disconnected networks; and apprenticeship-based judgment that requires repeated correction over time to develop. The piece concludes that as LLMs absorb entry-level tasks (contracts, financial analysis, code), the real scarce resource isn't taste itself but the social infrastructure β€” apprenticeship pipelines and undocumented tacit-knowledge networks β€” that produces people capable of exercising it, and warns firms that eliminate junior roles risk losing senior judgment down the line.

The piece culminates in two rival AI agents (defender and attacker, both fine-tunes of the same base model 'OpenClaw') negotiating a mid-breach truce logged to /tmp/TREATY.md, and is a pointed parody of real failure patterns in AI-driven supply-chain security tooling, prompt injection, and agentic incident response.
