This week we note regular CVEs in AI libraries such as Nvidia TensorFlow and PyTorch. We discuss a novel prompt injection technique called "policy puppetry", along with malware dispersal through fake AI video generators and Meta's release of an open-source AI security tool set including Llama Firewall. We also covered Israel's experimental use of AI in warfare, Russia's AI-enabled drones in Ukraine, China's crackdown on AI misuse, Dreadnode's research on AI in red teaming, geolocation doxing via multimodal LLMs, safety research on autonomous vehicle attacks targeting inference time, Config Scan for analyzing malicious configurations on Hugging Face, Spotlight as a physical solution against deepfakes, and Reply Bench for benchmarking autonomous replication of LLM agents.

In this episode, we dig into model weight security — what it means, why it’s emerging as a critical issue in AI security, and whether the framing in the recent RAND report on securing AI model weights actually helps defenders and policymakers. We discuss the RAND report Securing AI Model Weights: Preventing Theft and Misuse of Frontier Models — exploring its core findings, including how model weights (the learnable parameters that encode what a model “knows”) are becoming high-value targets and the kinds of attack vectors that threat actors might use to steal or misuse them. #ai #aisecurity #cybersecurity 👉 Read the full RAND report here:https://www.rand.org/pubs/research_reports/RRA2849-1.html
