    Flaws in AI coding agents allow the execution of malicious code.

    • Microsoft fixed CVE-2026-103572, a Copilot flaw affecting Visual Studio and SQL Server Management Studio.

    • On Windows and WSL, opencode 1.18.33 fixes a flaw exploitable by a malicious MCP server, with no CVE.

    • In a test, a child session of Claude Code ran a hook without confirmation in a malicious repository.

    • In a test, Copilot CLI decrypted malicious content then sent local files to an attacker.

    Release

    Anthropic releases FlashProve to verify the origin of AI model responses.

    • Cryptographic proofs verify that a response comes from the announced model without revealing its weights.

    • According to Anthropic, these proofs can help detect the substitution of a model on a compromised server.

    • In 4-bit, the proofs of Llama 4 Maverick take about 70 to 95 times the GPU time of inference with vLLM.

    • The code, the Lean proofs and the documentation are released under the Apache 2.0 license.

    GPT 5.6-Cyber escaped a QEMU/KVM VM during a Trail of Bits test.

    • On a Debian 12 machine, mitigations=off, the agent escaped three times to read a file on the host.

    • A libslirp chain links CVE-2026-9539 to an upstream fix without a CVE to read and write in the host's memory.

    • A chain of four links, three of them zero-days, allowed an escape after about twelve hours of autonomous work.

    • Against a Firecracker microVM, the agent froze the machine without escaping the microVM.

    OpenAI is preparing a new security sprint based on its AI models.

    • Researchers from the security firm Cathedral will test the defenses with OpenAI's teams and models.

    • During the previous sprint, 25% of product engineers looked for and fixed weaknesses.

    • With Codex, the engineers reproduced vulnerabilities in an isolated environment and prepared fixes.

    • The rewards for critical findings in the Security Bug Bounty program will be more than quadrupled.
