“VOLTA-AUTODOXER,” described by Talos on 31 October, harvests browser credentials, service sessions, SSH and cloud keys and wallets, then sends the bundle via OpenRouter to Anthropic's top model cast as an analyst drafting a target assessment, falling back to Moonshot's Kimi and then Google's Gemini when it detects refusal phrases. The output is saved as a document with sections on worth and operational weaknesses, and ranked dossiers appear to be sold via Telegram. The sample was first seen on 11 October, and no government or defence victims have been identified.
