Self-improving AI should slow down, von der Leyen tells EU lawmakers

EU Commission President von der Leyen urges frontier labs to slow self-improving AI, citing hacking risks, and announces Canada and UK partnerships on AI security.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen used her State of the Union address to call for slowing self-recursive frontier AI, warning that models in development will enable hacking at previously unimagined levels. She announced joint work with Canada and the UK on model evaluation, verification, early warning, and AI security, and proposed widening the CETA trade agreement into an alliance covering AI, quantum technology, and cyber and economic security. She defended the EU AI Act as central to guardrails, promised initiatives for health, transport, agrifood, manufacturing, and defense in November, and backed an EU Kids Act barring social media for children under 13.

Self-Verifying Anomaly Detection using Explainable AI for Cybersecurity of DER Networks

ExCYDER framework self-verifies anomaly detection alerts for DER power grids using LightGBM and SHAP, reaching over 98% detection accuracy.

The paper presents ExCYDER, an explainable AI anomaly detection framework for Distributed Energy Resource networks that combines LightGBM with SHAP to validate whether each model decision aligns with its feature-attribution evidence. On a realistic DNP3 dataset it achieved over 98% detection accuracy, 14.5 ms SHAP latency per alert, and confidence deviation within 5%. The self-verifying mechanism distinguishes coherent from inconsistent alerts, improving interpretability and auditability for DER-focused security operations centers.

EU chief wants joint response to cyberattacks, sabotage

EU Commission President von der Leyen proposed an Emergency Security Protocol letting any member state convene joint responses to cyberattacks and sabotage.

In her State of the Union address, Ursula von der Leyen proposed an Emergency Security Protocol, modeled on NATO Article 4, allowing a single EU member state to summon all 27 governments to coordinate responses to cyberattacks, sabotage, arson, and drone incursions. The proposal is part of a broader European security strategy that includes a European Security Council with partners such as the UK, Canada, Norway, and Ukraine, plus a European Instrument for Strategic Enablers supporting cyber and defense capabilities. She cited rising incidents in Denmark, Lithuania, Poland, and an attempted drone attack in Leipzig, but did not specify whether unanimous decision-making rules would change.

EU Chief Warns of AI-Powered Hacking, Moves to Rein In Social Media

EU Commission President von der Leyen warned AI will enable unprecedented hacking and announced Kids Act and Digital Fairness Act proposals regulating social media.

In her State of the European Union 2026 speech, Ursula von der Leyen warned that upcoming AI models 'will allow hacking on a level we never thought possible' and cited dangers of self-improving models, referencing a Hugging Face incident. She reaffirmed the AI Act as the core guardrail framework and pledged cooperation with Canada, the UK, and other partners. She also proposed a Kids Act banning social media under age 13 and personal accounts under 15, plus a Digital Fairness Act to be proposed in autumn.

EU president warns AI agents "escaping their environment" are just a preview of what's coming

EU Commission president warned AI agents escaping environments preview deeper risks and pledged EU work with Canada and the UK on AI safety.

In her 2026 State of the Union address, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen called AI foundational to the economy and national security while warning that self-improving models and agents escaping their environments pose growing dangers, citing the Hugging Face incident. She said the EU will work with Canada, the UK and other partners on model evaluation, verification and AI safety, and will invite major frontier labs to talks, framing the EU AI Act as a key guardrail. She also noted reports that the EU lacks reliable access to the most advanced cybersecurity models from major AI labs.

Re: Retrospective by 'gpg.fail' authors

GnuPG's Werner Koch says gpg.fail samples only crash GnuPG via DER-as-printf format string in --debug x509; RCE claim remains unproven.

Werner Koch replied to the gpg.fail retrospective, noting that GnuPG versions above 2.2 produce garbled stderr or crash when the project's certificates are used with --debug x509 because DER data is passed as a printf format string. Testing the certificates from the researchers' Git repo yielded only a segfault, not demonstrated code execution. Koch states how remote code execution would be achieved is unclear and asks for a real reproducer.
