VoidLink cloud malware shows clear signs of being AI-generated Source: BleepingComputer www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/secu… The recently discovered, cloud-focused VoidLink malware framework is believed to have been developed by a single individual with the assistance of an artificial intelligence model. Check Point Research published details on VoidLink last week, describing it as an advanced Linux malware framework. The platform includes custom loaders, implants, rootkit modules designed for evasion, and dozens of plugins that significantly expand its functionality. Researchers initially highlighted the framework’s sophistication, assessing that it was likely developed by Chinese actors with strong proficiency across multiple programming languages. In a follow-up report released today, Check Point researchers stated there is clear evidence that the malware was produced predominantly through AI-driven development and reached a functional iteration within approximately one week. This conclusion is based on multiple operational security (OPSEC) failures by the developer, which exposed source code, documentation, sprint plans, and the internal project structure.
