A new class action lawsuit questions whether Anthropic broke the law by misleading power users
An expanded class-action lawsuit alleges Anthropic deceptively advertised Claude Max subscription usage limits, masking five-hour session and weekly caps.
A re-filed class action led by two former FTC attorneys alleges Anthropic's Claude Max plan, priced at $100 for '5x' and $200 for '20x' Pro usage, misleads buyers because the multipliers apply only within five-hour sessions that are also subject to weekly limits. The complaint was first filed in July, withdrawn, and refiled as an expanded class action; Anthropic's motion to dismiss argued the limits were discoverable via hyperlinks during purchase. Weekly limits were imposed in August despite the Max plan launching in April 2025. Anthropic did not respond to requests for comment.

Multiple Class Action Lawsuits Filed Against IDScan
At least four class-action lawsuits filed against IDScan.net over an alleged breach exposing 153 million driver's licenses; FBI investigating.
At least four class-action lawsuits were filed in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana against IDScan.net following reports of a potential mega-breach of driver's license data. A Russian cybercrime forum service called Nexus claimed over 153 million driver's licenses, mainly American and Canadian, plus over 10 million ID cards, travel documents, and medical cards. The FBI is investigating the incident, which was first reported by journalist Brian Krebs, and IDScan.net says it is investigating. IDScan.net provides B2B ID verification services for clients including Hertz, FedEx, and hundreds of US cannabis dispensaries.

America's Driver's License Breach Is a National Security Disaster
Dark web service Nexus sells 153 million US/Canadian driver's licenses linked to a breach of identity verifier IDScan.
Krebs on Security revealed a dark web service, Nexus, selling access to 153 million driver's licenses and 3 million travel documents from US and Canadian citizens, roughly 63 percent of all US licenses. Circumstantial evidence links the data to identity verification firm IDScan, which confirmed it is investigating a breach, and the FBI is probing the incident. Licenses belonging to senior US officials, including Pete Hegseth, an FBI assistant director, and Krebs's own contacts were verified as genuine. The exfiltration appears ongoing, with the database growing by nearly 400,000 licenses in a single day, and the data carries significant national security value for foreign intelligence services.

10 most critical LLM vulnerabilities
OWASP updated its Top 10 LLM application vulnerabilities, ranking prompt injection first and elevating excessive agency to third amid agentic adoption.
OWASP refreshed its Top 10 list of critical vulnerabilities in LLM applications, for the first time incorporating real-world incident data alongside expert voting. Prompt injection and sensitive information disclosure remain first and second, while excessive agency jumped from sixth to third as agentic systems that call APIs and execute code proliferate. Unbounded consumption of AI resources rose in prominence, while improper output handling dropped to the bottom as output sanitization becomes widespread. The list includes remediation guidance such as strict output schemas, human-in-the-loop approvals, and least-privilege credentials held in application code.

Risky Bulletin: BEC campaign steals €35 million from French notaries
Hackers stole over €35 million from 500+ French notary offices in a four-year BEC campaign; ANSSI spent two years helping evict the attackers.
A business email compromise campaign breached more than 500 French notary offices — about 7% of all French notaries per the Conseil Supérieur du Notariat — over four years, stealing more than €35 million by phishing initial access and silently modifying wire transfer details. France's cybersecurity agency ANSSI worked for two years behind the scenes to help notaries remove the persistent attackers, who had deep access; officials also feared hackers could issue fake notarized acts such as marriage certificates or forged real estate deals. No forged documents have been found so far, but notaries have added two-factor authentication and in-person requirements for banking details, and banks added extra checks in 2024. The newsletter also notes other incidents, including a $320 million Bitcoin extraction from Blockstream's Liquid Network and a JetBrains Cadence breach via TeamCity servers.

Tech contractor for Brightly Software sentenced to 2 years in prison for insider attack
Cameron Curry sentenced to two years for stealing Brightly Software employee data and extorting the Siemens-owned firm for $7,540.92.
Cameron Nicholas Curry, a 27-year-old data analyst contractor at Siemens-owned Brightly Software, stole corporate and sensitive payroll data between August and December 2023 and sent more than 60 threatening emails to employees after his contract ended. He demanded roughly $2.5 million but received $7,540.92 in late January 2024, and was convicted of six counts of extortion in March. He was sentenced to two years in prison plus one year of supervised release, less than the 12-year maximum, after investigators traced him via operational security mistakes including a Coinbase account linked to family debit cards.
