Phishing emails have increased by 341% and 856% during the past six and 12 months, respectively, with the surge mostly attributed to the increasing adoption of ChatGPT and other generative artificial intelligence services among threat actors, reports SiliconAngle.
A study by Amazon Web Services researchers has revealed critical security vulnerabilities in large language models that understand and respond to speech, which could allow them to be manipulated into generating harmful responses using sophisticated audio attacks, according to VentureBeat.
Cybersecurity researchers have uncovered a new attack method that they have dubbed LLMjacking, which targets cloud-hosted large language model services using stolen cloud credentials, after which attackers would attempt to sell the illegal access paths to these models to other threat actors, The Hacker News reports.
