US says Chinese firms extracted billions of tokens from frontier AI models
CISA, NSA, and FBI say six Chinese AI firms including DeepSeek industrial-scale distilled Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and xAI frontier models.
A joint CISA, NSA, and FBI advisory accuses DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, Alibaba, MiniMax, StepFun, and Z.AI of extracting billions of tokens from frontier models via millions of API requests since late 2024. The agencies assess the operations likely had Chinese government awareness and represent a core development strategy. Tactics included fraudulent shared accounts, provider failover, proxy routing, and chain-of-thought extraction across Claude, GPT, Gemini, and Grok models.

AI Coding Tools Now a Prime Target for Threat Actors, Google Warns
Google Threat Intelligence Group warns threat actors increasingly target AI coding tools and proprietary AI data, with UNC6780's Dustmaker enabling large-scale supply chain compromises.
Google Threat Intelligence Group's September 8 report says AI-assisted coding tools have become prime targets, contributing to large-scale software supply chain compromises in 2025 and early 2026. Financially motivated group UNC6780 used its Dustmaker credential stealer to extract tokens from GitHub Actions runner memory and compromise packages across PyPI, npm, and Docker Hub, then sold harvested AI tool credentials to other criminals. Chinese nation-state actor UNC6508 conducted espionage against proprietary AI research at North American academic, medical, and military institutions, while extortion gangs stole models, prompts, and source code in Q2 2026. GTIG also documented agentic attacker experimentation, including an autonomous multi-agent credential harvesting campaign built in under six hours and a 'Recon' C2 framework managing over 23,800 harvested secrets.
