LATEST DEVELOPMENTS
Anthropic introduced OSS Scanner, a free, opt-in AI vulnerability scanner using top models like Claude Mythos to periodically audit open-source code and help defenders patch flaws at scale.
Details
Service Overview: Core maintainers can opt into periodic, automated security audits powered by Anthropic's strongest frontier AI models without human triage friction.
Setup Requirements: Open-source projects enroll by submitting a GitHub pull request containing a
YAMLconfig file and a Dockerfile to run tests in an isolated, offline container.Disclosure Policy: Findings carry no initial forced 90-day disclosure deadline due to potential false positives, though manual verification through their CVD policy may trigger standard timelines.
Current Impact: Anthropic has already flagged over 29,000 potential flaws in major software, resulting in 6,000+ reports sent to maintainers and 584 official advisories.
Key Takeaway
As AI accelerates automated cyberattacks, tools like OSS Scanner aim to shift the ecosystem balance toward defense, enabling open-source maintainers to proactively fix vulnerabilities before exploiters leverage them.
USA Today's parent company has sued OpenAI for over $250 million, alleging it scraped hundreds of thousands of copyrighted articles without authorization to train its commercial AI models.
Details
Lawsuit Filed: USA Today Co. (formerly Gannett) filed a federal suit in New York against OpenAI entities, joining news outlets like The New York Times in legal action.
Massive Data Allegations: The complaint claims OpenAI scraped and copied hundreds of thousands of articles from USA Today and local papers (e.g., The Tennessean, IndyStar, The Columbus Dispatch).
Market Substitution: Publishers argue ChatGPT's summaries and outputs act as direct market replacements, siphoning web traffic and subscription revenue away from local journalism.
Remedies Sought: The lawsuit demands over $250 million in damages, disgorgement of profits, and a court order to destroy training datasets containing the publisher's work.
Key Takeaway: Publishers are escalating their legal offensive against AI developers, signaling that unauthorized scraping of regional and national journalism for commercial AI training will carry multi-hundred-million-dollar liabilities.
