PyTorch Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
A vulnerability in the HuggingFace Transformers library, specifically in the `Trainer` class, allows for arbitrary code execution. The `_load_rng_state()` method in `src/transformers/trainer.py` at line 3059 calls `torch.load()` without the `weights_only=True` parameter. This issue affects all versions of the library supporting `torch>=2.2` when used with PyTorch versions below 2.6, as the `safe_globals()` context manager provides no protection in these versions. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by supplying a malicious checkpoint file, such as `rng_state.pth`, which can execute arbitrary code when loaded. The issue is resolved in version v5.0.0rc3.

Claimed Bug Bounty Hunter Likely Used LLM to Build PhantomRaven npm Stealer
A financially motivated threat actor has been linked to the development and distribution of a JavaScript (JS)-based information stealer known as PhantomRaven via the npm package registry. "The developer likely wrote the malware using a large language model (LLM), an assessment made with high confidence based on verbose comments, placeholder code, and statistical token-analysis patterns,"
ChatGPT Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
AI agents, including Claude Sonnet 4.5, GPT-5, and Gemini 2.5 Pro, demonstrated high proficiency by solving 9 out of 10 lab challenges that simulated real-world web application vulnerabilities with minimal cost.
