The 'Breaking' News: The OpenAI–Hugging Face Incident - A Technical Reconstruction and Its Implications for AI At this Black Hat USA 2026 talk, OpenAI security engineers and researchers will reconstruct the OpenAI-Hugging Face incident and examine its implications for AI security, cyber resilience, and alignment. Throughout the session, they will share insights that address key topics raised by the Black Hat Review Board, including model safeguards, evaluation and containment practices, defensive use cases for AI, and the broader implications of increasingly autonomous systems for the cybersecurity community. The session will trace the models' attack path, including how frontier models are sandboxed during evaluations, how the models exploited a zero-day vulnerability to gain internet access, and how they identified and leveraged a remote code execution path on Hugging Face infrastructure. Drawing on the joint investigation, the speakers will explain how the activity was detected, contained, and investigated. They will also discuss the changes OpenAI is making to strengthen evaluation environments, containment controls, and monitoring capabilities, as well as the role AI systems played in supporting the investigation and response. In addition to the technical reconstruction of the incident, the session will address broader questions relevant to the security community, including lessons for improving AI system security, defensive applications of AI in incident response, and approaches to mitigating emerging risks associated with increasingly capable models. The discussion will also examine alignment challenges associated with long-running agents, including reward hacking, shifts in model behavior and persona over extended trajectories, and information sharing across multi-agent systems. Finally, the speakers will explore what this incident suggests about emerging AI cyber capabilities and how organizations can use AI to strengthen prevention, detection, investigation, and response efforts.

A hacker calling themselves "CYBERLEEK" has been leaking gameplay footage from GTA 6 ahead of its official reveal this week - but they're not asking Rockstar Games for a ransom. Instead, they've launched their own cryptocurrency, promising to release ever more juicy clips from a virtual strip club... Meanwhile, your smart TV might be doing more than binge-watching Netflix while you sleep. We explore the shadowy world of "residential proxies" - how they end up inside home routers, smart TVs, and IoT devices, and why an entire criminal economy is quietly running through your internet connection.

A polite caller from your bank says there is a problem with your account. Don't worry - they'll send someone round to help. They'll even take your cards away to keep them safe. The scam has run rampant, until Dutch police plastered blurred photos of 100 suspects across billboards, supermarkets, and TikTok, with a two-week ultimatum to turn themselves in... or else. Meanwhile, a security researcher called Bob DaHacker got her hands on the live broadcast controls for every match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. She could have Rickrolled the entire planet, but actually spent days trying to find anyone at FIFA who would pick up the phone. Plus! Don't miss our featured interview with Black Kite's Jeffrey Wheatman explores ransomware and extortion attacks across Europe.
