Anthropic has detailed how an unreleased internal AI model, identified as Claude Mythos Preview, discovered and chained together vulnerabilities across multiple operating systems and browsers. The model successfully created exploit chains for Chrome, Safari, Android, Windows, and Linux, with one proof-of-concept achieving remote code execution on macOS within seconds. While Anthropic claims these exploits were chained using only initial prompting, all identified vulnerabilities have since been patched by the respective companies, and no live attacks utilizing these specific chains were observed.
