🚨Critical Security Flaw Found in Microsoft’s AI

Aim Labs discovered “EchoLeak,” a vulnerability within Microsoft 365 Copilot that allowed bad actors to steal sensitive information from organizations.

Key Details:

• Microsoft 365 Copilot deploys AI-powered tools across Teams, Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint to help organizations streamline repetitive workflows.

• It was categorized as a “zero-click” cyberattack, meaning bad actors didn’t need the organization to click on a malicious link or download a shady file.

• It was an “LLM scope violation,” where a specially crafted email containing hidden instructions could be sent to an organization, compelling the organization’s Microsoft 365 Copilot to access sensitive information and send it to bad actors.

Why It’s Important:

• It received a CVSS of 9.3, which is categorized as a critical security flaw. For context, the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) ranks the severity of a security vulnerability on a scale of 0 to 10.

• 73% of organizations have experienced at least one AI-related security flaw in the past 12 months, with an average cost of $4.8 million per incident.

💨Meta’s New AI Decodes the Physical World

Meta introduced “Video Joint Embedding Predictive Architecture 2 (V-JEPA 2),” which helps Robots and AI Agents understand the physical world.

Key Details:

• If we toss a tennis ball into the air, we know gravity will pull it back down. This kind of physical intuition is something we develop by observing how gravity, friction, and collision influence the physical objects around us.

• We rely on this physical intuition every day to predict how the world will react to our actions. For example, knowing how much force to use when opening a door.

• It’s not some magical ability; it’s our brain constantly building an internal model of how the world works based on our experiences and observations.

• “V-JEPA 2” helps Robots and AI Agents navigate and interact with the physical world by understanding how forces like gravity, friction, and collision influence a sequence of actions.

Why It’s Important:

• The physical world often feels complex and chaotic, yet we’ve learned to discover the underlying laws that govern it. For instance, Newton’s Laws of Motion explain the relationship between physical objects and the forces acting upon them.

• So, what if Robots and AI Agents could autonomously uncover the underlying laws that govern the physical world? It would supercharge revolutionary breakthroughs in understanding the forces and flows of the universe.
