Balanced across AI and cybersecurity so one high-volume feed does not crowd out the other.
The infostealer was delivered via CVE-2026-48558, a critical authentication bypass vulnerability in SimpleHelp, targeting credentials linking development and admin environments to wider enterprise systems.
Open verified source article ↗Nissan is warning that it suffered a data breach affecting current and former employees after threat actors exploited an Oracle PeopleSoft vulnerability in data theft attacks previously linked to the ShinyHunters extortion group. [...]
Open verified source article ↗The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) says the ShinyHunters extortion group stole only publicly available data, outdated logs, and configuration files after breaching its systems by exploiting a zero-day vulnerability in an Oracle PeopleSoft server. [...]
Open verified source article ↗Nation-state attackers breach water systems through weak passwords, exposed PLCs, and poor segmentation — not sophisticated malware.
Open verified source article ↗Hackers are exploiting a recently disclosed critical vulnerability (CVE-2026-48558) in SimpleHelp to deploy Djinn Stealer, a previously undocumented cross-platform information stealer targeting Windows, macOS, and Linux. [...]
Open verified source article ↗arXiv:2606.27619v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dyslexic learners increasingly use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support reading, writing, organisation, and study-related tasks. However, their lived experiences with these tools remain largely underexamined. This paper proposes DysLexLens, a low-resource LLM framework, designed to analyse dyslexic learners experience with AI through online forum discussions.…
Open verified source article ↗arXiv:2606.27443v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personality prompting shapes how large language models communicate, yet whether these behavioral shifts affect objective task outcomes remains under-explored. Prior work shows that agents prompted with low agreeableness produce adversarial language, while those prompted with high agreeableness become cooperative, but the relationship between communication style and…
Open verified source article ↗arXiv:2606.27382v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While the primary function of computers lies in computation and processing, the core value of the Internet is rooted in sharing and collaboration. Computers create the Internet, and the Internet empowers the value of computers. The rapid development of the Internet, cloud computing, and big data is pushing artificial intelligence into the era of large models (LMs).…
Open verified source article ↗arXiv:2606.27736v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid spread of fake news poses increasing threats to information ecosystems, especially as AI-generated misinformation under Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) poisoning allows adversarially crafted content to be systematically surfaced by retrieval systems, contaminating LLM reasoning. In this paper, we propose Tree of Evidence (ToE), a hierarchical evidence…
Open verified source article ↗arXiv:2606.27483v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents have demonstrated strong capability in sequential decision-making, yet they remains fundamentally reactive in long-horizon tasks. Unlike humans who employ "what-if" reasoning to evaluate potential plans before commitment, standard agents lack an internal world model to simulate future outcomes. Therefore, we propose to internalize…
