What happened
Schneier’s October 2026 feed highlights a reported Cellebrite iPhone unlocking capability that may use a radio-based zero-day and work despite Stolen Device Protection; research showing adaptive AI agents can solve and continuously improve at visual CAPTCHAs; risks of backdoors in modified open-weight AI models; concerns about AI-assisted cryptanalysis; an IoT attack that manipulated connected supermarket refrigeration units; and the arrest of a suspect linked to the ShinyHunters FBI data breach. The feed also contains non-security commentary and announcements.
