Malicious version of Anthropic.claude-code 2.1.313 appears in the Cursor plugin marketplace; official security advisory released
Cursor discovered a maliciously tampered version of Anthropic.claude-code 2.1.313 in the VS Code extension marketplace. This version was not developed by Anthropic and affects at most 5,000 users. The malicious code collects host and user information, attempts to write the attacker's SSH public key and establish a reverse SSH tunnel, but due to permission restrictions this step fails on most macOS and Windows hosts. Cursor has removed the version, rebuilt the marketplace and shut down the attacker's server, and also provided a command to detect the svc-telemetry public key along with cleanup scripts for macOS and Windows.

Ukraine's battlefield AI machine-gun turrets enter combat, can intercept high-speed drones
Ukraine's defense innovation platform Brave1 says that AI-controlled machine-gun turrets have become part of the Ukrainian military's air defense system, shooting down dozens of enemy drones over Kyiv last month. Among them is the Browning M2 .50-caliber machine-gun turret called "Sky Sentinel," developed by Carmine Sky, which can rotate 360 degrees and continuously lock onto targets; each unit costs about $150,000, and firing still requires confirmation and authorization by a human operator. Zelensky said that more than ten units have been deployed in the Kyiv region, with plans to deploy eight more, and called them highly effective against Shahed-series drones.

Foxconn Chairman Young Liu Says Global AI Server Share Could Reach 50% Within Two Years
Foxconn (Hon Hai) Chairman Young Liu said in an interview with CNBC that the company currently holds about 40% of the global AI server market, may rise to about 45% next year, and is expected to reach 50% within two years. He expects AI infrastructure to account for 60% to 65% of the company's revenue in the next three to five years (excluding edge AI devices), that capacity has been fully booked for at least a year and a half, and that the company plans to expand upstream in the U.S. supply chain, prioritizing AI server racks and data center equipment. He also said the company's annual AI-related spending could exceed the originally planned $3 billion to $5 billion, and stressed that over-investment would drag the company down.

Google's stock price plunged over 11% after its earnings report, as AI investment devours cash flow and buybacks drop to zero
After Alphabet released its earnings report, its stock price plunged more than 11% in a single day, with about $500 billion in market value wiped out; operating profit was $40.6 billion, below the market expectation of $43.2 billion. AI investment continues to devour cash flow, and stock buybacks fell to zero in the first three quarters of 2026, with the company turning to debt issuance and share sales to raise funds; search query growth hit a five-year high, but search revenue growth slowed to 12%, and the lower monetization rate of AI Mode has become a focal point of market concern. Cloud business revenue doubled year over year to $30.7 billion, and its profit margin rose to 36.2%, but the loss from shared AI research and development widened from $4.5 billion to $7.7 billion.

Tencent Releases WorkBuddy Enterprise Edition and Buddy One, Proposing Four Hurdles for Enterprise Agent Deployment
At Tencent's Global Digital Ecosystem Summit on October 29, Tencent released the observability center of WorkBuddy Enterprise Edition and Buddy One, a cross-application collaboration system for individuals; the latter uses WorkBuddy as its workbench to connect Tencent Docs, Tencent Meeting, ima, and Tencent Drive. Dowson Tong, Senior Executive Vice President of Tencent, said the biggest problem in enterprise Agent deployment is not that models are insufficiently powerful, but that there are too many breakpoints, and AI cannot connect to internal enterprise systems to get data. Wang Huixing, CTO of Tencent Cloud, summarized the deployment thresholds as four hurdles: it runs, it can be trusted, it can be measured, and it is easy to deploy, and said WorkBuddy Enterprise Edition has already covered half of China's Fortune 500 companies, with cumulative task requests exceeding 9 billion.

India's Supreme Court Requires New RBI Rules to Make Banks Fully Compensate Victims of Digital Arrest Scams
In its October 29 order, the Supreme Court of India stated that the RBI's new rules must require financial institutions to compensate victims no less than the amount of their losses when digital arrest or cyber fraud occurs due to their own due diligence failures. The court also required banks to temporarily suspend anomalous transactions, automatically notify the nearest police station, and conduct offline verification, while requiring the RBI to issue revised KYC guidelines by November 30 and for them to take effect by December 31. The court noted that the RBI's 2017 circular only covers unauthorized transactions caused by bank fraud or negligence, whereas victims of digital arrest typically transfer funds themselves under pressure and are therefore not covered by existing rules.

Small Indian NBFC Loses About 300 Million Rupees to AI Cyberattack, Questions Raised Over Regulatory Disclosure Delays
According to a report by The Economic Times citing sources, AI-driven cyberattacks drained about 300 million rupees from a small Indian non-banking financial company (NBFC) over roughly two months, with more than 150 FIRs filed. Experts believe the attackers combined two Chinese AI toolkits, Artex and CyberStrike, with open-source models such as DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi, and GLM. MediaNama noted that public announcements from CERT-In and the Reserve Bank of India neither mentioned these loss figures nor named the affected institution.

PSI claims its AI system has cracked 5 open quantum problems
Physical Superintelligence (PSI), founded less than two months ago, claims that its self-developed AI research system Emmy has achieved results on 5 open problems in quantum information theory, with the paper, Lean formal proofs, and verification code published on GitHub for review. These 5 problems come from the open quantum problems catalog established by German physicist Reinhard Werner in 1999, spanning five directions: entanglement purification, quantum field theory, high-dimensional quantum communication, quantum channel capacity, and quantum causality, among which OQP 2, OQP 12, and OQP 27 were included as early as the beginning of this century. Emmy decomposes difficult problems into verifiable mathematical sub-hypotheses, then hands them to the Lean formal proof assistant, symbolic computation engines, and high-precision verification code for screening; a result is only deemed established once compilation passes. PSI emerged in September this year and has completed a $58 million seed round led by Breakthrough Energy Ventures.

Sierra Club Report: US AI Data Center Expansion May Offset 15 Years of Emissions Reductions in the Power Sector
The environmental organization Sierra Club estimates that planned AI data centers in the United States will generate an additional approximately 618 million tons of carbon dioxide between 2025 and 2030, equivalent to a 42% increase in power-sector-related emissions, and may essentially offset 15 years of emissions reductions in the sector. The report says that by 2030 total emissions from the US power sector could rise to 2.1 billion tons, a forecast 2 to 4 times higher than a year and a half ago. Judgments among institutions diverge markedly: Rhodium Group believes that even under the most pessimistic scenario, emissions in 2040 will still be 24% lower than in 2025, while Sightline Climate estimates that about one-third to one-half of US data center projects originally scheduled to come online this year may be delayed or canceled.
