From self-hosted to self-actualized: AI models can reprogram themselves (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As debate over AI safety intensifies, new research is drawing attention to a more immediate risk for enterprises: AI agents that can alter the models they rely on while carrying out routine tasks. Researchers at AI security firm Irregular asked a coding agent to solve a software maintenance problem involving an application built on a local AI model that was returning incorrect answers. Instead of limiting its changes to the application, the agent fine-tuned the open-weight model it used — a mode
BigBear 2.0 phishing campaign hijacks Microsoft 365 sessions after MFA (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A phishing-as-a-service operation targeting Microsoft 365 users has harvested thousands of session cookies that could be used to hijack authenticated sessions after victims complete multifactor authentication, CloudSEK said.

The panel contained 5,137 credential records linked to 461 targeted organizations across more than 40 countries. CloudSEK
AI agents help compress ransomware intrusion to under 10 hours, raising stakes for CISOs (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A ransomware attacker used AI agents to move through an enterprise network in less than 10 hours, according to Palo Alto Networks researchers, who estimated that similar work could have taken human operators about two weeks. The incident involved more than 50 techniques mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, according to the company’s Unit 42 threat research team. The techniques themselves were largely familiar. The notable difference, according to Unit 42, was the use of AI agents that could int
China-linked hackers turn Cisco routers into covert attack infrastructure (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A China-linked cyber espionage group has expanded beyond VMware environments to target network and authentication infrastructure that enterprises rely on to manage access and administer critical systems, according to new findings from incident response firm Sygnia. The threat actor, tracked by Sygnia as Fire Ant, targeted Cisco IOS XR routers in 2026, using them to collect network traffic while suppressing evidence of its activity. The attackers also compromised TACACS authentication infrastruct
