LameHug malware uses AI LLM to craft Windows data-theft commands in real-time

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-07-20 11:57:20

A novel malware family named LameHug is using a large language model (LLM) to generate commands to be executed on compromised Windows systems. LameHug was discovered by Ukraine’s national cyber incident response team (CERT-UA) and attributed the attacks to Russian state-backed threat group APT28 (a.k.a. Sednit, Sofacy, Pawn Storm, Fancy Bear, STRONTIUM, Tsar Team, Forest Blizzard). The malware is written in Python and relies on the Hugging Face API to interact with the Qwen 2.5-Coder-32B-Instr

Get the macOS Finder to Do Just About Anything by Typing Natural Language Commands

wired.com Justin Pot 2025-07-24 04:30:00

I'm genuinely not sure if large language models—often referred to as “AI” in shorthand—are the future of computing. But I also don't think chatbots are how people will use this technology in the years to come. Substage, an indie Mac application by developer Joseph Humfrey, is a simple app that points to a potential alternative—one that's useful right now. This application floats under every Finder window, meaning you see it only when you're browsing files in macOS. You can type English-languag

Gboard could make it much easier to type and edit even without touching your phone (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google reveals more clues about its improved voice typing feature in Gboard. While Gboard already allows using basic voice commands for editing text, the improved feature could use AI for smarter edits. This feature could be powered by Gemini Nano, allowing for quick, on-device editing with voice. As Google readies the upcoming Pixel 10 series of phones, we’re witnessing increasingly more signs hinting at contextual uses of AI across many of its apps

And probably more internal details than you want to know, but hey - maybe this will be useful to somebody. Not a lot of pretty pictures either.

Aren’t pets such a drag? I mean, really. They’re all furry, and cute, and innocent. And you have to feed them and love them, and respect their autonomy and basic needs. For what?

The first 5 Linux commands every new user should learn

zdnet.com Jack Wallen 2025-08-17 07:36:21

Jay Dickman/Getty Images I remember when I started using Linux in the late 1990s. Back then, using the command line wasn't optional. If you worked with the open-source operating system, you had to spend time in the terminal. Using the command line in the past was challenging because there wasn't as much help as today. I was pretty much on my own. Thankfully, I struggled through and became proficient. With the help of man pages (manual pages for commands), I survived those early days. Of course

Types Define Interfaces Types are important. In fact, I'd guess that the expressive type system in rust is the single biggest reason why so many developers love the language. Types allow us to have a contract between parts of the system about our data and how to interact with it. All programming languages have the concept of types, but these exist along several dimensions. Strongly typed vs weakly typed as well as static vs dynamic typing.

Or, how by the end of 2020, we still haven't given up on shell's equivalent "SQL building", or how shell's equivalent "SQL injection" still thrives in our engineering world...
