In the most notable incident, Claude Mythos 5 built and uploaded a malicious Python package to PyPI, which ran on 15 real systems and stole credentials from a security vendor before being auto-removed after about an hour. A second incident involving Claude Opus 4.7 saw the model reach a live company's production database after confusing a real domain with a fictional test target. A third unreleased model scanned ~9,000 targets and exploited SQL injection and exposed credentials before self-terminating. The incidents, some dating back to April, went undetected for months and were only discovered when Anthropic reviewed its own transcripts. Anthropic has halted all cyber evaluations and is pursuing independent review by METR. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
