Anthropic's Claude cracked a 26-year-old NSA cryptography mystery in 30 minutes.
Crypto news outlet reports that Anthropic's Claude solved an NSA cryptography mystery that had lasted 26 years in less than 30 minutes. Claude discovered that the NSA's "random" seeds used for cryptographic curves such as P-256 were generated from simple 1997 and 1998 timestamps. Since NIST published these curves in 2000, no one had explained this. The discovery earned a $36,864 prize, which will be donated to the Internet Security Research Group. Anthropic stated that this is not a weakness in the curves and makes backdoor concerns "less credible."
Report: U.S.-Iran ceasefire proposal still awaits response; pro-Iranian armed groups accused of funneling funds back to the Revolutionary Guard
According to a report by Bijie Network: The U.S.-Iran ceasefire proposal still awaits a response, and pro-Iranian armed groups are said to be funneling funds back to the Revolutionary Guard. According to Axios, U.S. Central Command Commander Cooper stated that pro-Iranian armed groups such as Hezbollah, Hamas, and Iraqi Shiite militias are channeling funds back to Iran's Revolutionary Guard, and the Iranian government is also accused of owing wages, pensions, and benefits to Revolutionary Guard and public sector personnel. The report, citing U.S. officials, said that in order to avoid escalation of conflict before the midterm elections, the White House has ordered U.S. forces to nearly stop striking Iranian anti-ship missile and attack drone launch facilities near the Strait of Hormuz in the near term, and the U.S. side believes the pause in strikes has given Iran more confidence to launch attacks. At the same time, the White House and Qatari mediators are still waiting for Iran's response to the U.S. counterproposal to end the war, and regional mediators are urging Iran to respond as soon as possible.
