About this episode

This episode discusses the impact of AI on cybersecurity, highlighting several significant vulnerabilities and attacks.

AI is reshaping both sides of the cybersecurity battlefield — and fast. In this episode, we break down five stories that prove it: the first Chrome zero-day of 2026 (CVE-2026-2441), a near-perfect CVSS 9.9 in Microsoft's Semantic Kernel SDK (CVE-2026-26030), a supply chain attack on AI coding assistant Cline that silently installed autonomous agents on thousands of developer machines, the first-ever Android malware using Google's Gemini AI at runtime (PromptSpy), and a Russian-speaking threat actor who used commercial AI tools to breach over 600 FortiGate firewalls across 55 countries in just five weeks. Whether you're a developer, security professional, or just someone who uses a browser — this one's worth your time. 🔔 Subscribe and hit the bell so you don't miss an episode! 🎧 Also available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever you get your pods. --- ### ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 — Hook: AI Is Reshaping Cybersecurity 1:08 — Welcome & CTA 1:49 — Story 1: Chrome Zero-Day CVE-2026-2441 (CVSS 8.8) 5:15 — Story 2: Microsoft Semantic Kernel RCE CVE-2026-26030 (CVSS 9.9) 7:58 — Story 3: Cline CLI Supply Chain Attack — OpenClaw Installed on 4,000 Machines 14:35 — Story 4: PromptSpy —…
