Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Anthropic said its Claude Mythos Preview model found a new lattice symmetry to fully recover HAWK-256 signature keys and cut the cost of a seven-round AES-128 meet-in-the-middle attack by 200 to 800 times, though both results stay far from threatening production HAWK-512/1024 or full ten-round AES-128.
