Malware gaslights AI

from Cybersecurity Today · host David Shipley

Mac Malware Gaslights AI, Major Info-Stealer Takedown, OpenAI's Patch the Planet, and FortiBleed Fallout Mac malware called "Gaslight," attributed to North Korea-aligned actors, plants fake system messages designed to derail AI-based analysis while stealing data and exfiltrating it via a Telegram bot.   Microsoft and Europol disrupted the Amadey and SteelC info-stealer ecosystem by seizing/shuttering infrastructure after identifying 140,000 infections in early May and over 200 command-and-control domains and IPs, as part of Operation Endgame.   OpenAI announced "Patch the Planet," a joint effort with Trail of Bits and HackerOne to help open-source projects find and fix bugs amid AI-generated report flooding, alongside a new GPT 5.5 Cyber benchmark result.    New FortiBleed reporting underscores that the campaign relies on credential reuse against exposed FortiGate devices and may require rotating far more than just firewall passwords.   00:00 Sponsor Message 00:25 Headlines Overview 00:55 Mac Malware Gaslight 02:00 Telegram C2 And Stealer 02:50 Info Stealer Takedown 04:08 Operation Endgame Impact 04:47 OpenAI Patch The Planet 06:16 AI Models And Export Rules 07:08 FortiBleed Recap 08:13 Inside The FortiGate 08:59 Rotate Credentials Now 09:26 Closing And Sign Off
