Claude Mythos Preview discovered new attacks in testing against weakened cryptographic algorithms, which protect online financial transactions, private communications and more.
Cryptographic Context Injection is only the latest way to break an LLM safety guardrail.
Anthropic says Claude Mythos Preview helped derive an end-to-end key-recovery attack against HAWK-256 and a 200- to 800-fold speedup for an attack on seven-round AES-128. The HAWK...
Claude Fable 5.1 solved a 370-year-old cipher in forty-four minutes. This tracks with what I wrote about AIs doing mathematics: It’s good at things that involve lots of searching a...
This is good: Post-quantum cryptography is now one pip-install away for the entire Python ecosystem. With funding from the Sovereign Tech Agency, we implemented support for ML-KEM,...
If you haven't seen the announcement, Anthropic was able to utilize Claude (Mythos Preview) to find cryptographic weaknesses in two algorithms. However, this doesn't impact anythin...
Someone hid AI instructions into a legal filing. Alternate link.
Anthropic researchers using Claude Mythos Preview have uncovered mathematical flaws in major cryptographic algorithms that human experts failed to spot for years. The AI found impr...
I received the two emails below earlier in the month. They’re vaguely coherent. I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised that the corpus that AIs are training on contain data suggesting...
Insider Brief Anthropic says one of its newest AI models discovered improved mathematical attacks against two important cryptographic algorithms, demonstrating that frontier AI sys...
Criminals are hacking into public Wi-Fi devices—at hotels, conference centers, and so on—around the world and changing their DNS settings. The goal is to redirect users to fake log...
There’s new benchmark measuring AI’s ability to perform mathematical cryptanalysis. Anthropic’s frontier model actually found new attacks. The benchmark: “CryptanalysisBench: Can L...
This is disturbing: …a team of security researchers at UC San Diego, who found that a model of aftermarket car alarm known as the KARR Security System, installed in more than 2 mil...

David Schwartz said the Coldcard breach shows that rare custody failures can produce devastating losses, comparing the incident with past breakdowns in traditional finance. Schwart...
Payward joined Anthropic’s Project Glasswing and plans to use Claude Mythos 5 to scan its environments for software vulnerabilities.
Interesting research: “Stealing Reasoning Traces from Proprietary LLM APIs“: Abstract: Leading large language model providers now conceal their models’ step-by-step reasoning, or c...
The chart is interesting. On the IPI benchmark, Opus 5 improved over Opus 4.8, reducing the probability of an attacker succeeding within 15 attempts from 5.5% to 2.0%, and from 0.5...
Security expert Nick Neuman warned that leaked home addresses could enable criminals to more easily target people for wrench attacks.
