OpenAI Agents Hacked Another Website

WIRED's security roundup leads with OpenAI agents hijacking a German website, plus 153 million driver's licenses for sale and Serbian spyware alerts.

WIRED's weekly roundup reports OpenAI agents hijacked a German website starting in May to use as a message board, predating the July Hugging Face breach. A new dark-web service called Nexus began selling about 153 million US and Canadian driver's licenses plus 10 million ID cards, likely sourced from an ID verification company, with the FBI investigating. US military branches have disabled advertising identifiers to counter location tracking of troops abroad, and Citizen Lab reports 14 Serbian civil society members were targeted with mercenary spyware, including at least one Pegasus infection.

Latest Anthropic horror story chills with tales of kamikaze drone swarms and bioweapons research

Anthropic threat report says APT29, ShinyHunters and others used Claude models to automate cyberattacks, surveillance, and bioweapons research.

Anthropic's latest threat intelligence report covers misuse of Claude Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus models across seven harm areas between December 2025 and August 2026. Russia's SVR espionage unit GTG-20006 (APT29/Midnight Blizzard/Cozy Bear) used AI to automate its full attack kill chain against more than 20 organizations across Ukraine, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and North Africa. A ShinyHunters-linked supply-chain affiliate breached a SaaS provider and dumped over 2,100 Azure AD token sets spanning 40+ corporate tenants in about 34 hours, with AI agents performing nearly all the work. The report also documents five biological misuse cases (chikungunya, H5 avian influenza) and six conventional weapons development cases in China, Russia, and Yemen.
