Anthropic Mythos AI Finds Rejetto HFS Flaw That Lets Attackers Forge Admin Sessions and Execute Code

Anthropic’s Mythos AI has identified a critical vulnerability in Rejetto HTTP File Server that could allow remote attackers to forge administrator sessions and execute arbitrary code. The issue, tracked as CVE-2026-61500, stems from predictable session-signing keys generated through JavaScript’s non-cryptographic Math.random() function. Horizon3 made the finding after joining Anthropic’s Project Glasswing in July 2026, which uses the Mythos Preview model and industry partners to identify and fix critical and open-source software flaws.

CISO perspectives on managing vulnerability risks in the age of AI

Most of what has been written about AI and vulnerability management focuses on speed: how much faster frontier AI models can scan code, find weaknesses, design patches, and build exploits than any human team. That part is true, and it matters to how we remediate vulnerabilities. The more challenging question is what happens after the scan? Frontier AI models are about to hand every security team a far larger set of findings than they have ever had to work through. The real test for chief information security officers (CISOs) and IT security leaders is not how fast they can patch.
