Fascinating 🛡️ Claude, Codex, and Hermes installed unowned code inside corporate networks 🛡️ Researchers at a stealth startup in Israel scanned 6,214 live domains belonging to defense contractors, Fortune 500, and Big Tech companies. Of the 8,265 llms.txt and llms-full.txt files they found (many sites hosted both an llms.txt and an llms-full.txt file), 120 of them, each on a different site, pointed to one or more code packages or domain names that weren’t registered. To test what happens when an AI agent processes such files, the researchers registered a handful of the unclaimed names and hosted packages that caused any machine executing them to reach out to their server. Within an hour, the researchers received a phone-home response from a Fortune 500 company. Over time, they got a few dozen more, some from more Fortune 500 companies and others from startups. Their beacon also recorded the chain of parent processes that spawned each install, ultimately revealing that coding agents, including Claude, OpenAI’s Codex, and Nous Research’s Hermes, were involved. Anthropic, OpenAI, and Nous Research did not respond to requests for comment by the time of publication. The research makes a compelling case that in the age of AI, the once-bright line between data and executable code is vanishing. Anything an agent can process is a potential instruction it may act on if it has permission to run commands.https://arstechnica.com/security/2026/08/claude-codex-and-hermes-installed-unowned-code-inside-corporate-networks/ #InfoSec

Wczoraj pisałem, że wygoda to największy wróg bezpieczeństwa. Obrona prywatności często wymaga radykalnych kroków i odcinania telemetrii. To prawda, ale nie oznacza to wcale, że cyfrowa higiena zawsze musi pochłaniać mnóstwo czasu i wymagać zaawansowanej wiedzy inżynieryjnej.Dla zachowania zdrowej równowagi wrzuciłem nowy materiał do sekcji /guides. Zawarłem w nim absolutne minimum cyfrowego przetrwania dla każdego. To cztery fundamentalne kroki (w tym sprawdzony model 3 Tier Password System), które wdrożysz w zaledwie 15 minut. Zbudujesz solidny fundament, zyskasz cyfrowy spokój i odetniesz lwią część realnych zagrożeń.Zapraszam do lektury:https://eteryu.space/guides/jak-zabezpieczyc-telefon-w-15-minut/Jeśli macie w swoim otoczeniu osoby, dla których cyfrowa higiena to czarna magia, podajcie ten wpis dalej. Pomóżmy wspólnie innym zrobić ten pierwszy krok.#cyberbezpieczenstwo #infosec #prywatnosc #opsec #android #ios #poradnik #cyfrowahigiena

Guys, MAJOR update for PH4NTXM...I've been working long for this one, using all the technical knowledge can be found offline/online, with specialized tools, automations and more.PH4NTXM now is on v2.0.0A lot of things changed, from UI, to fail-closed mechanisms, and strict boot verification pilot.Philosophy remained as always THE SAME.It's a big step, cause we filled so many gaps, and automated things to be adaptive, like the purpose of the Operating System.Go try it, build it, break it, repeat.Thank you, as usual, PH4NTXM.#ph4ntxm #linux #debian #os #live #privacy #security #opsec #infosec #research #tech #technology
