Imagine there's no Shiny Hunters – AI could make human hacking crews obsolete

FBI reported another ShinyHunters arrest after an FBI data breach, while Mythos found an exploited bug.

The FBI said agents arrested another suspected ShinyHunters co-conspirator, which reporters treat as a third arrest tied to the crew's late-September intrusion into bureau systems. Stolen data included names, jobs, physical locations, and emergency contacts for agents and applicants; the English-speaking group claimed a much broader haul and said the hack was meant to defend its reputation after the Instructure Canvas breach, not to collect a ransom. Other suspects were previously reported detained in the Netherlands and Jordan. The same discussion says Anthropic's Mythos model discovered a second vulnerability that was later exploited in the wild.
