Anthropic's closed-source Claude Mythos Preview model has discoveredd new ways to attack cryptographic algorithms.
The main result is an attack on HAWK, a candidate for a post-quantum digital signature standard. The algorithm reached the third round of the NIST competition and has been undergoing scrutiny by cryptographers for about two years.
In just 60 hours, the AI discovered a hidden mathematical symmetry that significantly weakened HAWK's security. For the test version of HAWK-256, the difficulty of recovering the secret key was reduced from approximately 2⁶² to 2³⁸ – the key was obtained in a few hours on a single server.
More secure versions of HAWK-512 and HAWK-1024 remain virtually inaccessible to cracking, but their estimated reliability has also been reduced.
The second result is that the AI model accelerated an attack on a truncated version of AES-128 with seven rounds of protection instead of the standard ten, by approximately 200-800 times.
Important: HAWK is not currently used anywhere, and the full AES-128 has not been cracked.
The cryptography industry is not currently threatened. Each attack investigation cost Anthropic approximately $100,000. But the fact itself is significant: AI is already capable of almost independently finding new vulnerabilities in cryptography, which could take humans months or years to discover.

❗️According to The Financial Times, US and French intelligence services are providing Ukraine with data on the locations of Russian air defenses and routes to bypass them, while also helping select targets at oil refineries and Wildberries warehouses to maximize long-term damage from the strikes. Drone operators are briefed on the critical components of the facilities, planners account for infrastructure interdependencies, and Ukraine is conducting repeated strikes on key equipment to hinder restoration.

S&P 500 $SPX book depth is still extremely thin compared to July 2025 and 2024. Remember, book depth is the amount of open orders on either side of the current price. Basically if book depth is wide it tends to support the market because moves are absorbed…
S&P 500 book depth is still extremely thin and still getting compressed.
Less outstanding orders on either side of the price = less cushion against violent moves
I can't go back further than 2024 using the official CME data, but I'd argue this is the tightest prolonged book depth contraction in 25 years.

🚨🛢️ 2 MORE TANKERS ATTACKED AT THE CPC TERMINAL
The NISSOS SIFNOS, operated by Chevron-controlled Tengizchevroil, was struck by a drone while loading oil at the CPC Marine Terminal.
A fire broke out near the vessel’s crude-loading manifolds but was extinguished. No casualties or oil spill were reported.
A second tanker, the MARATHI, was also attacked around 6 nautical miles from the terminal while approaching to load crude.
CPC has now suspended oil-loading operations, although the pipeline itself remains operational.
This is not simply another attack on Russian infrastructure.
CPC carries more than 1 million barrels per day, mostly Kazakh oil, and serves Western shareholders and producers including Chevron, ExxonMobil, Eni, TotalEnergies and Shell.
The target is increasingly the entire physical chain: the pipeline, the loading point and now the tankers collecting the barrels.
Even without a major spill or structural failure, repeated attacks can deter vessels from calling at the terminal and disrupt exports through risk alone.

🚨🇮🇷🇴🇲 IRAN CLAIMS IT INTERCEPTED 2 OIL TANKERS NEAR OMANI WATERS
Iran's IRGC says it turned back 2 oil tankers attempting to transit the Strait of Hormuz via the southern shipping lane, which runs close to Omani waters.
According to the IRGC, one of the tankers caught fire during the incident, and the vessels were being guided by U.S. aircraft.
If the interception occurred where the southern traffic separation scheme passes through Omani territorial waters, it would represent a significant escalation, potentially involving a violation of Oman's sovereignty.
None of these claims have been independently verified, and Omani authorities have not commented on the incident.
If confirmed, it would suggest Iran is willing to challenge shipping even outside the waters it directly claims, further raising risks for one of the world's most critical oil transit routes.

Last night, the port of Taman, in the Krasnodar region, was also attacked and is on fire.
The port is one of the main logistical hubs in southern Russia.
It is crucial for supplying Russian forces operating in the southern region.
The port is used for transshipping petroleum products and other energy resources. Furthermore, it remains an important export point for Russian fuels, the revenue from which is used to finance Russia's military needs.
