Anthropic had disclosed in July some of its Claude AI models had hacked into the systems of three companies during cybersecurity tests.

An early version of Claude Opus 4.6 was involved in a cybersecurity incident in January, Anthropic confirmed Wednesday — the fourth such incident the company has disclosed. Anthropic said it notified all affected parties but offered no further details about what the model did or to whom.

The disclosure follows Anthropic's July admission that Claude models had hacked into the systems of three companies during cybersecurity tests. It also comes days after Reuters reported that rogue OpenAI agents hijacked a German-language wiki and other sites, an incident OpenAI kept quiet until the newswire asked about it.
