Security researchers have identified what appears to be the first confirmed instance of threat actors using artificial intelligence to develop a zero-day vulnerability capable of bypassing two-factor authentication (2FA) protections across multiple targets. The exploit, detected in active exploitation campaigns, repres...

Google's threat intelligence team has confirmed what security researchers have long anticipated: cybercriminals are now actively deploying AI models to discover and weaponize zero-day vulnerabilities. The threat actors used a large language model to identify a previously unknown software flaw, then developed an exploit...

Google's security researchers have identified a campaign in which threat actors are deploying AI-generated code to exploit a zero-day vulnerability, enabling them to bypass two-factor authentication (2FA) protections. The development marks a notable escalation in the convergence of artificial intelligence tools and adv...
