This Is My (Not) Surprised Face

Two days ago, Check Point Research published an article regarding what they’re calling the first evidence of a completely AI-driven malware framework, VoidLink. They first encountered this new framework in December, affecting Linux, and at the time considered the cluster of samples to be unfinished in terms of a fully functional tool. But it was evolving. Fast. Too fast for human oversight considering the level of sophistication and complexity.

The framework includes cloud implantation and harvesting credentials via Git repositories. It contains features like in-memory plugins, adaptive stealth capabilities tailored enough to preserve operational security over performance and multiple command-and-control channels. Earlier this month, CPR wrote about these details, concluding that it was likely inspired by Cobalt Strike’s Beacon Object Files approach. (For more information on that, see my report on Cobalt Strike here.) VoidLink is primarily written in Zig, but also has capability in Go, C and React. At the time of this earlier article, the malware was considered to be still in proof-of-concept mode, with no real intention of use being clear other than some kind of commercial venture.

Fast forward just a week, and we have our answer. VoidLink is a self-evolving, powerful malware suite, capable of building an entire attack campaign with little oversight. It is, however, not perfect. CPR has been monitoring the architecture traced back to a single human actor and found operational security (OPSEC) failures that allowed them to document how this malware is coded and how it evolves in real time. It is there that CPR concluded that this model was AI-generated, considering that what looked like a development period that should have taken many months was happening in a matter of hours or days.

Much of my research results in finding patterns. The ebb and flow of infosec is discernible if you spend enough time in it. And today, I’m having a moment of deeply conflicted vindication. I saw this coming, and have even reported on it several times, going back to September and October of 2025; PromptLock, prompt injection in general, and this report on generative AI that brings up novel malware forms. But it is not something I wanted to be right about. AI-generated code has evolved to be autonomous and continuous. CPR’s report highlights some of the structures that give away the AI nature of VoidLink, namely the thoroughness, speed, and adaptability in a modular framework.

The danger here isn’t actually the new and innovative ways AI can be manipulated by threat actors. That was always a foregone conclusion, since everything that exists is subject to exploitation (I mean, Cobalt Strike is a great example of that). It’s the sheer volume of it that is going to overwhelm attempts to mitigate it when fully functional frameworks can be built from the ground up in less than a week. And keeping up with it will be challenging for human SOC teams that require things like food and sleep. Reports like CPR’s will go a long way to understanding the infrastructure of AI malware, but that alone is not enough. We are currently living with what I consider an anti-vaxxer mentality towards cybersecurity. Too many companies either don’t understand why they need protection or don’t want to pay for it, or be compliant with it if they do. I predicted this trend months ago. Now it remains to be seen what we, as an industry, are going to do about it.

the reason i'm voidkin is due to my bpd and autism oftentimes i don't feel like a human being. i'm just an empty shadowy thing pretending to be a human. and i'm great at keeping up the facade when i'm happy or i'm around people i like but the moment things go wrong it feels like i slip out of my human skin, like it's a disguise that's melting off me and i'm some kind of monster pretending to be a human

Announcement!

I will be creating French content on Tumblr, in addition to my English content.

On Tumblr, the content is mostly English, but some members of our communities don't speak much English or use Google Translate, which is not as comfortable as directly understanding the text in front of you.

So I would offer content in French, and I invite non-English speakers to do the same!

We shouldn't forget the English communities, of course! But it would be more comfortable for many of us to be able to interact without being afraid of using the wrong words 😅...

Bye! And drink water it's important!

Je vais créer du contenu français sur Tumblr, en plus de mon contenu anglais.

Sur Tumblr, le contenu est principalement en anglais, mais certains membres de nos communautés ne parlent pas beaucoup anglais ou utilisent Google Traduction, ce qui n'est pas aussi confortable que de comprendre directement le texte en face de soi...

Je proposerais donc du contenu en français, et j'invite les non-anglophones à faire de même!

Il ne faut pas oublier les communautés anglophones, bien sûr ! Mais il serait plus confortable pour beaucoup d'entre nous de pouvoir interagir sans avoir peur d'utiliser les mauvais mots 😅...

Salut! Et buvez de l'eau c'est important!

What a happy family

I realized I never gave my oc's any lore or sum shit except featherfall but I hated it so I'm changing it

Deadbite is a bat. He's both genders so yeah he's a femme and a mech,- He first became a maximal out of pity cus he honestly only had one optic holding on and I can't describe the damage that was caused to him for some reason but the sooner he got used to being with the maximals the more of a dickhead he becomes because like he HATES everyone. Like literally, except nyx though, deadbite is a masochist that loves being beaten to the brim and nyx sometimes smacks the shit out of him so he formed a love-hate bond with nyx and he became obsessed with her till nyx eventually got enough and (idk this part I haven't thought about it yet (?)) - then deadbite was soon kicked out of the team because he was the reason that their plans were getting messed up (badly) , then he was saved by featherfall, and featherfall hid him in a safe spot till deadbite decided to kill her and he himself got killed by the predacons later on

Featherfall - she's a dove. Shes a femme with a personality that's too kind for the life she's living rn, like you can torture her and she'll forgive you. Because she thinks that hate shouldn't be a thing (?) And she just wants peace for everyone, even if it has a bit of a evil mess. She has a habit of giving everyone nicknames like rattrap (being sweet rat🤥) , shes pretty close to airazor as a friend! Speaking about that, shes a bit shorter than airazor. - she sees everyone as family! - before deadbite died, she was killed by him bcus he tore the other side of her face off and tore her wings off and since she's pretty fragile, she died painfully 😢 - later, deadbite regretted his actions and yes he tried killing himself but whatever

Voidlink - I used to name him haoko but I changed it cus it sounds too human lol, he's a mountain gorilla and mountain gorillas are slightly smaller than western Lowland gorillas(which Optimus primal is one) but I made haoko bigger and taller than him anyways 😋

Voidlink is a old grumpy mech that has probably seen ancient times before but NOT literally the ancient times (ok sorry he's just old okay) - and he's pretty intelligent. Works alongside rhinox 👌 his strength is reaaalllyyyyyy big 🤩, he's shorter than dinobot though, but a bit taller than rhinox. - he has a crush on Optimus primal but he can't show it (although big bot senses it's very obvious). He can get pretty shy when around primal and he makes it really obvious.. - he's very caring about everyone and ensures their safety. He's like a leader himself

He later dies by megatron. (Too late to confess his feelings to primal 😔 but he probably never would anyways)

Plus + - deadbite And featherfall actually both grew up in the same environment together so practically you can call them siblings (although their NOT siblings but see each other as one, ykyk?) That's why featherfall saved deadbite because she can't bare to loose him, even though he treats her like shit. Even when deadbite kills her, she'll forgive him nonetheless.

Deadbite can get soft towards her, but he also hates her

Voidlink literally adopted them both (this all happened before the beast wars yer) , sooo featherfall and deadbite sees voidlink as a father figure.

Deadbite would still cry in voidlink's arm like a child 👌

And yeah that's practically all it, killsmyslef##

Edit: I forgot to add something

Deadbite : hes lowk useless

Featherfall : medic and scout :3 (smthing also like she marks areas from above and reports to the others that they are dangerous areas so they can avoid it or sumthin, you get it)

Voidlink : technician 👌 he's pretty intelligent, works alongside rhinox
