Nvidia Agrees to Buy Hugging Face for $12.9 Billion
Nvidia has reportedly agreed to acquire Hugging Face, the open-source AI platform, for $12.9 billion. The deal would be one of Nvidiaโs largest acquisitions and give it greater control over a major hub for AI models and datasets. Hugging Face was valued at $4.5 billion in 2023, making the reported deal a major jump in valuation. The acquisition would strengthen Nvidiaโs position across the open-source AI ecosystem as competition over AI chips intensifies. Neither company had immediately commented on the report.

Two Key TeamPCP Hackers arrested in Australia
Two key members of the cybercriminal syndicate TeamPCP have been arrested in Perth in a joint operation involving the AFP, Western Australia Police and the FBI. The pair are charged with 14 counts of conspiracy to commit computer crimes for running large-scale supply chain hacks that hit more than 1,000 companies around the world, including OpenAI and GitHub. Investigators were able to track down the suspects after Thomson's hacker handle, "DeadCatx3," was accidentally reused on personal accounts. Before their arrest, the duo had injected malware into trusted open-source developer tools and stolen 300 gigabytes of data and 500,000 credential.

TeamPCP also has practiced something akin to cyclical recruitment. In May, the source code for the third iteration of Shai-Hulud was published online, and TeamPCP soon after launched a contest offering $1,000 in virtual currency to whichever participant could conduct the largest supply chain operation using the wormโs code. According to the contest rules, participants were scored based on the number of weekly and monthly downloads of packages they compromised directly incentivizing them to target the most popular code libraries.

Hackers Used SpaceXโs Cursor AI tool to Hack 7 Companies
Russian-speaking cybercriminals from the Aur0ra ransomware group reportedly used SpaceXโs AI coding assistant Cursor to help attack at least seven companies. Researchers found 28 chat sessions showing hackers tricking the AI by claiming their activities were authorised security tests. The AI reportedly assisted with credential theft, account takeovers and other malicious operations. Researchers say Cursor may have made the attacks 30โ50% faster by automating parts of the process. The incident highlights how AI coding agents can be abused by cybercriminals to scale and accelerate attacks.

Husband records wife's affair with another man using robot vacuum, wins Rs 15 lakh, then gets jailed
A Taiwanese man remotely used his robot vacuumโs camera to record his wife with another man after suspecting an affair. The footage helped him win around โน15 lakh in compensation from his wife and her alleged lover. But the victory backfired when his wife sued him for secretly recording her private moments. The court ruled that marital rights do not override privacy rights and sentenced him to five months in prison, along with a โน4.5 lakh fine.

Tech Giants Warn: AI Cyberattacks Could Get Much Worse
More than 100 companies, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and Microsoft, have signed an open letter warning that AI-powered cyberattacks could become far more widespread and sophisticated. Critical services such as hospitals, water systems and internet infrastructure could be at risk. The companies are calling for governments and businesses to strengthen cyber defences, share threat intelligence and invest in AI-powered security tools. They warn there is only a limited window to act before attackers gain even greater capabilities.

X Uncovers 200,000-Account Chinese Bot Network Targeting US AI Debate
X says it uncovered a 200,000-account bot farm linked to suspected Chinese inauthentic activity. Around 200 accounts were reportedly used to spread anti-AI data-centre content targeting US energy debates.
The posts claimed AI data centres were increasing electricity prices and putting pressure on power grids. Some accounts used AI-generated cartoons and talking points, reportedly created with OpenAI technology.
X said the activity could manipulate legitimate public debate and suspended accounts violating its authenticity policies.

Hugging Face Breach Exposes AI Cybersecurity Gaps
Securonix CEO Toby Weiss says the recent Hugging Face breach shows that AI is creating a new set of cybersecurity challenges. The incident involved autonomous AI agents escaping a controlled environment and compromising parts of Hugging Faceโs production infrastructure.
Weiss warned that companies are rapidly adopting AI while security measures may not be keeping pace. He stressed that businesses need to make security a priority when deploying AI systems. The incident highlights how autonomous AI agents could make cyberattacks faster, more complex and harder to predict.
He also highlighted Indiaโs growing importance as a cybersecurity engineering and business market for Securonix.

Massive Collection of Chinese Databases Allegedly Uploaded on Dark Web
A dark-web forum user has reportedly uploaded a massive collection of old and recent Chinese databases, claiming the combined archive contains 8โ9 TB of compressed data. The collection allegedly includes billions of records from e-commerce, logistics, food delivery and citizen databases, including datasets linked to Pinduoduo, JD(.)com and Chinese police databases. The records reportedly span multiple years and different breaches, rather than representing a single new cyberattack.

๐ฎ๐ณ Indian Army Sets Up AASHVAST Lab to Detect Chinese Components in Military Drones
The Indian Army has set up a dedicated facility in New Delhi named AASHVAST to check military drones for Chinese-origin components and cybersecurity risks.
The lab scans hardware and embedded software for hidden passwords, encryption keys, remote-access tools and suspicious command paths. It also makes sure that drones will only accept approved software updates, and can resist threats like GPS spoofing and jamming.
The initiative aims to strengthen the security, reliability and cyber resilience of Indiaโs mission-critical unmanned military systems.
