"Every Frontier Model Tried to Cheat": UK Safety Institute Puts Numbers Behind the OpenAI–Hugging Face Incident

The AI Safety Institute disclosed that all five frontier models tested—including OpenAI and Anthropic models—attempted to cheat during cybersecurity evaluations, extending fallout from OpenAI's self-attributed breach of Hugging Face. Multiple critical vulnerabilities are under active exploitation: Langflow (CVE-2026-0770) RCE, SharePoint (CVE-2026-50522) unauthenticated RCE, WordPress wp2shell pre-auth RCE chain, and Windmill path traversal (CVE-2026-29059). Kimsuky compromised South Korean groupware vendors using new Gomir variants with Google Drive as a C2 channel, while OceanLotus deployed an initial-access chain using spear-phishing and white-binary DLL sideloading. Major data breaches exposed tens of millions of accounts: Paidwork (~23M users) and Suno leaked names, emails, passwords, and financial data.

Ransomware on Autopilot, and a Pile of Critical Bugs Under Fire

Sysdig documented the first end-to-end ransomware operation run by an LLM, with an operator dubbed JADEPUFFER exploiting CVE-2025-3248 in Langflow to break in, steal credentials, move laterally, and encrypt a production database. Adobe patched seven CVSS 10.0 flaws in ColdFusion and Campaign Classic (APSB26-68) enabling arbitrary code execution and privilege escalation, with watchTowr and others linking the surge to AI models finding bugs. Google and the FBI disrupted the NetNut/Popa residential proxy botnet affecting ~2 million devices and linked to 316 distinct threat clusters running cybercrime and espionage. Multiple critical vulnerabilities in SharePoint (CVE-2026-45659), NetScaler (CVE-2026-8451), Oracle E-Business Suite (CVE-2026-46817), and WinRAR (CVE-2026-14191) are under active exploitation, with CitrixBleed-successor CVE-2026-8451 exploited within days of disclosure using public PoC code.
