Claude Mythos Preview shows how AI can rapidly discover and weaponize zero-day vulnerabilities—transforming once human-scale threats into machine-speed attacks. As these capabilities spread, public sector organizations must rely on trusted, proactive defenders like TrendAI™ ZDI to stay ahead of an AI-driven threat landscape.

In this research, we analyzed over 19,000 open-source MCP server repositories to uncover how much AI-generated code they contain and how many harbor exploitable vulnerabilities.

Exposed Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers have become powerful vectors for cloud attacks, enabling threat actors to not only access sensitive data but also take control of the cloud services themselves.

Even as AI adoption accelerates, old exploits remain overlooked weaknesses. Underground trends show a renewed demand for exploits, with cybercriminals relying on aging but still effective vulnerabilities. We examine this blind spot and why long-standing issues need to be addressed.
