Security researcher Shou Chaofan stated that he just purchased about 6TB of Fable model invocation data from a leading Chinese model relay station, which included sensitive credentials such as SSH keys, VPN configurations, Alibaba Cloud keys, and GitLab tokens. He claimed that the keys in this batch of data were sufficient for him to access the servers or internal systems of 19 leading Chinese companies, as well as 7 Chinese and CIS government-related agencies, including Huawei, Xiaomi, NIO, and MiniMax.The model relay station is positioned between users and models like Claude, so requests and responses pass through it first, allowing it to see the complete plaintext. Once developers insert SSH Keys, API Keys, VPN configurations, etc., into the Agent context, if the relay station saves or even sells these records, the company's system keys will also leak out. This is not the first time Shou Chaofan has warned about the risks of relay stations. A paper he participated in tested 428 LLM relay stations in April and found that 9 actively injected malicious code, 17 actually used AWS test keys deliberately placed by researchers to call AWS, and 1 directly transferred ETH from the test wallet.Shou Chaofan is a co-founder of the blockchain security company Fuzzland and has long been engaged in vulnerability and supply chain security research. At the end of March, he also first discovered that the source map in the Claude Code 2.1.88 release package accidentally exposed about 500,000 lines of TypeScript source code.

According to CoinDesk, the latest paper released by researchers from institutions such as Theta Labs, the Ethereum Foundation, and StarkWare shows that the resources required for potential quantum attacks on Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) have decreased by more than 50% compared to the estimates previously published by Google's quantum artificial intelligence team.The quantum circuit design proposed in the study requires only about 1,151 logical qubits and uses approximately 1.3 million Toffoli gate operations to complete the relevant calculations, with a comprehensive score of about 1.5 billion, lower than the approximately 3 billion level previously published by Google.The research primarily optimized the point addition calculation in Shor's algorithm, which theoretically can use sufficiently powerful quantum computers to derive private keys from public keys. Jieyi Long, one of the main authors of the paper and CTO of Theta Labs, stated that quantum attacks are not imminent at the moment, but transitioning to quantum resistance will take years, and remediation cannot be done after an attack occurs.
