FDA Launches Elsa AI Tool to Accelerate Scientific Reviews and Drug Safety Assessments

Elsa, a generative AI tool developed by the U.S. FDA, is intended to expedite clinical protocol evaluations and drug safety assessments by streamlining scientific reviews. Elsa, which is built in a highly secure GovCloud environment, protects data privacy by prohibiting AI models from being trained on submissions from regulated industries. The program saves time for scientific evaluations and inspection targets by helping FDA staff with reading, writing, and summarising responsibilities. After a successful pilot run, FDA Commissioner Marty Makary stressed that Elsas launch was on time and within budget. To improve efficiency and regulatory supervision, the government intends to integrate AI more widely into its operations. Read More..

Meta Automates 90% of Risk Assessments, Raising AI Oversight Concerns

Meta is replacing its humanled privacy and integrity checks with AI for 90% of its risk assessments for new products and updates. The AI system will assess safety tools, contentsharing guidelines, and algorithm tweaks, granting immediate approvals or necessary adjustments. Critics warn of less monitoring, particularly in areas like misinformation management, youth protection, and AI safety, despite Metas promises that this will speed up feature rollouts. Because AI lacks human judgement in complicated ethical issues, some employees worry that the change could increase hazards in the real world. Although internal documents indicate automation will spread to sensitive areas, Meta maintains that human reviewers will continue to handle highrisk instances. Read More..

Critical Linux Vulnerabilities Expose Password Hashes via Core Dump Manipulation

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered two critical vulnerabilities in Linux systems that could allow attackers to steal passwords through core dum

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered two critical vulnerabilities in Linux systems that could allow attackers to steal passwords through core dump manipulation. The flaws affect Ubuntu, Fedora, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux, enabling local attackers to exploit race conditions and gain unauthorized access to sensitive data. The vulnerabilities stem from weaknesses in Apport Ubuntu’s crash reporting tool and systemdcoredump Red Hat’s core dump handler, potentially exposing password hashes from /etc/shadow. Security experts recommend disabling core dumps for SUID programs and implementing strict validation measures to mitigate risks. Organizations are urged to patch affected systems immediately to prevent credential theft and unauthorized access Read More..

APT41 Exploits Google Calendar for CommandandControl Malware Operations

APT41, a hacker collective with ties to China, launched a sophisticated cyberattack using Google Calendar as a commandandcontrol C2 channel, according to Googles Threat Intelligence Group GTIG. Through spearphishing emails that contained a malicious ZIP package posted on a hacked government website, the virus, known as TOUGHPROGRESS, was disseminated. The software enabled hackers to exfiltrate confidential data and deliver remote commands by creating zerominute calendar events with encrypted data contained. Google has notified the impacted organisations and terminated the fraudulent Calendar accounts. Similar assaults have previously been carried out by APT41 using Google Drive and Sheets, underscoring the increasing abuse of cloud services in cyber espionage. Read More..

Apple Safari Security Flaw Exposes Users to Fullscreen BitM Attacks

Cybercriminals can utilise the Fullscreen API to deceive users into interacting with remotecontrolled browsers that steal login credentials, thanks to

Cybercriminals can utilise the Fullscreen API to deceive users into interacting with remotecontrolled browsers that steal login credentials, thanks to a recently found security weakness in Apple Safari. Due to Safaris lack of fullscreen notifications, researchers at SquareX caution that these BrowserintheMiddle BitM attacks are especially successful since victims unintentionally enter passwords into overlays that are controlled by the attacker. Safaris sparse user interface indicators make consumers susceptible to phishing attempts, in contrast to Chrome and Firefox, which show fullscreen warnings. Apple has admitted the problem but said the current safeguards are enough and has decided not to add more security. To reduce dangers, experts advise avoiding fullscreen login prompts, checking URLs, and utilising browsernative security capabilities. Read More..
