UK Cyber Chief Says the UK Will Face AI Cyberattacks on Critical Infrastructure by 2028

SecurityWeek reports on the UK National Cyber Security Centre's annual report, presented by NCSC head Richard Horne. It warns that criminals and states, including China and Russia, will likely use AI against UK critical infrastructure by 2028, mainly to scale existing techniques. It cites nearly $20 billion in yearly UK losses, Jaguar Land Rover's $260 million loss in 2025, and the FSB-attributed December 2025 attack on Poland's energy grid.

LongCat-2.5: Native Multimodality for Agentic Tasks

LongCat-2.5 is a native multimodal mixture-of-experts model with 1.6 trillion total and about 48 billion activated parameters, built on LongCat-2.0 for long-horizon agentic coding. The post describes discrete RVQ visual tokens, large-scale asynchronous agentic RL with synthesized F2P/P2P-tested environments, on-policy distillation, train-inference numerical alignment, and W4A4 inference on domestic accelerators. A table compares it with GPT-5.5, Claude-Opus-5, GLM-5.3, Kimi K3 and DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash.

Backporting security fixes at scale with Codex

Trail of Bits describes a Codex (GPT-5.6) workflow that backports security fixes to stable Linux kernel trees, Ubuntu LTS and Fedora. By 29 October 2026 it had helped land fixes for 149 CVEs in stable kernels. Agents find missing fixes, adapt patches and assemble validation evidence; a human review takes about 30 minutes to 3 hours. It also sizes the unfixed-CVE backlog in kernel branches, Debian 13 and Ubuntu 26.04.

Trail of Bits describes a Codex agent workflow that backports security fixes to stable Linux kernel trees and distro packages. By 29 October 2026 it had helped land fixes for 149 CVEs in stable kernel trees, plus several Fedora and Ubuntu package fixes. Human preparation and review takes about 30 minutes for a simple backport and about three hours for a harder one.

So I guess everyone uses LLMs to think now

The eva.ac author argues that recent AI-credited vulnerability findings come from skilled researchers steering LLMs, and that AI firms use disclosures as marketing. Cases cited: Calif, OpenAI and Wiz framing PHP2Shell differently; a hash teaser before the Tailscale "tailworm" privilege escalation (author's account: Tailscale not contacted); and the eMudhra CA key found without AI. No sources, dates or CVEs are given.

So I guess everyone uses LLMs to think now

"So I guess everyone uses LLMs to think now" is an opinion post from the eva.ac blog. The author explains why they never use LLMs for published research: they do it for fun and cannot take credit for model output. They argue LLMs still need skilled guidance, criticise AI-company security marketing (PHP2Shell from Calif, OpenAI and Wiz), and cite the Tailscale "tailworm" disclosure and the eMudhra key found without AI.

The Rise of Agentic Attacks: What They Look Like, and Where They're Headed

Wiz Research reviews agentic attacks seen in its incident response work and in public reports (ARTEX, Hermes, JPCERT/CC, CrowdStrike, DIVD). It derives fingerprints of AI-agent activity from three intrusions: machine-paced iteration, natural-language reasoning in scripts, self-correcting script versions, checklist enumeration, noisy lateral spraying, probe-before-payload and self-labeled scratch files. It also covers effects on attribution, attack scale and defense.

Tailscale Rushes Patches After Uncoordinated Disclosure of ‘Tailworm’ Flaws

Tailworm is a set of 11 findings, published by Cyberdione Labs before patches, in Tailscale client 1.104.2 and headscale 0.29.5. Four of six high-severity bugs affect Tailscale SSH, where root-privileged forwarding safeguards can be bypassed, giving root on reachable servers and wormable spread at under a second per hop. Tailscale advises reviewing SSH policies and disabling forwarding until a patched client ships. No in-the-wild exploitation is reported.

This is Fine: What NetScaler Zero-Days Tell Us About the New Normal

This SecurityWeek commentary covers the September 2026 Citrix NetScaler ADC and Gateway zero-days, exploited from mid-month and patched on 27 September as unauthenticated RCE flaws CVE-2026-88771 through CVE-2026-88778. The author argues the fast response shows stronger defence. Cited evidence: Citrix disclosure time fell from about 40 days to 17 in 2026 after it set up a NetScaler CNA, and CISA made a rare Sunday KEV addition.

The map combines existing data worker databases, Ma's own data collection and news reports on working conditions. It aims to show "AI colonialism" at scale, beyond anecdotal accounts.

Test-time training in robotics shows no clear gains in demo response

This article reports a study submitted October 23, 2026 by Qiangong Zhou, Jiafeng Liang, Yimin Dong, Yang He and Hongxiang Li. They added Test-Time Training (fast-weight memory) to the vision-language-action models InternVLA-A1 and Pi0.5, trained on paired human demonstrations and robot trajectories. Shorter videos, full-trajectory gradient connectivity and contrastive regularization gave no clear gain in demonstration-guided target selection at the tested scale.

It reviews Web Bot Auth signatures and Google's AP2 payment mandates, showing both stop at the platform or key and never establish a person. It then covers harms (one-person-one-share abuse, no one to answer for an agent, distorted public counts, collapsing confidence, scaled deception, broken ad economics) and lists the properties a privacy-preserving proof-of-personhood credential needs: strong, private, portable, delegable, accessible.

Crypto's Quantum Defense Is Being Built in the Open

Bankless article on Eigen Labs' Yukon platform, which runs open challenges where researchers and AI agents attack and improve cryptography. It covers ECDSA.fail (quantum circuit cost for attacking Bitcoin/Ethereum ECDSA, cut about 88% from baseline), HashSmash (SHA-256 weakness hunting, so far only on reduced versions), sig.golf (hash-based signatures), StarkWare's Quantum Safe Bitcoin (cost down from about $320 to $59) and better.codes (provable security raised from 64 to about 68 bits). The argument is that public, measurable attack-cost data helps defenders prepare better than withholding circuits does. All gains are theoretical and no quantum computer has run an attack at this scale.

Strengthening our defenses against distillation attacks

Anthropic describes how it countered industrial-scale distillation attacks on Claude, in which proxy networks of hundreds of thousands of fraudulent accounts (stolen payment details, false identities) tricked models into revealing hidden reasoning. Defenses include a two-stage constitutional-classifier system (<0.1% false positives), "preserved thinking" that blocks edits to prior context for new API accounts, restricting reasoning transcripts to the originating organization, stricter limits, bans, and charging for blocked requests. It reports 10–100x fewer reasoning tokens extracted, cites Zhipu's GLM-5.3 and Moonshot Kimi forwarding as examples, and discusses trade-offs and the need for platform-wide action.

It covers the deviation request (DR) process, the SCA problems of scale and missing context (manifest-based inventories, with 88% of imported code unused), and 30–180 day remediation SLAs. It argues that only high-confidence, function-level reachability that holds from any source is likely to satisfy a 3PAO.

Hackers Used AI Agents to Raid a Megachurch's Database, Exposing 850,000 Members

Seoul megachurch Yoido Full Gospel Church disclosed a breach exposing data on 850,000 members (names, birth dates, and logged changes to resident registration numbers, phone numbers and addresses), discovered by security firm Oasis Security on an overseas server alongside attack logs showing AI sub-agent activity and machine-generated attack reports. A second megachurch, Sarang Church, lost about 89,000 member and 286 employee records in a related August incident, and South Korean authorities are separately investigating suspected AI-assisted hacks at banks including Shinhan, which exposed data on about 25,000 customers. The exact role AI played in gaining initial access remains unconfirmed, but the find marks one of the first documented cases of attacker logs referencing autonomous AI sub-agents in a large-scale breach.
