The company deliberately limited Opus 5's training on offensive tasks and restricted it from generating exploits, allowing it to search source code for vulnerabilities while blocking binary scanning, penetration testing (simulated attacks to find weaknesses), and exploit generation.","solution":"N/A -- no mitigation discussed in source.","labels":["security"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.securityweek.com/anthropics-opus-5-nears-mythos-5-on-finding-bugs-but-falls-short-on-exploits/","publishedAt":"2026-07-27T10:02:41.000Z","cveId":null,"cweIds":null,"cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"severity":"info","attackType":[],"issueType":"news","affectedPackages":null,"affectedVendors":["Anthropic"],"affectedVendorsRaw":["Anthropic","Claude Opus 5","Claude Fable 5","Claude Mythos 5","Opus 4.8"],"classifierModel":"claude-haiku-4-5-20251001","classifierPromptVersion":"v3","cvssVector":null,"attackVector":null,"attackComplexity":null,"privilegesRequired":null,"userInteraction":null,"exploitMaturity":null,"epssScore":null,"patchAvailable":null,"disclosureDate":"2026-07-27T10:02:41.000Z","capecIds":null,"crossRefCount":0,"attackSophistication":"moderate","impactType":["integrity"],"aiComponentTargeted":"model","llmSpecific":true,"classifierConfidence":0.92,"researchCategory":null,"atlasIds":null}}
