CLOSEDQUORUM Shows Malware Letting Four AIs Choose Its Actions

Researchers found a malicious Windows program called CLOSEDQUORUM.

Instead of waiting for a person to tell it what to do, it asks several AI systems for instructions.

The systems can include DeepSeek, Qwen, Mistral and Google’s Gemini.

The malware is designed to steal passwords and cryptocurrency wallets.

This could let an attacker control more computers without constantly giving commands.

However, researchers have not confirmed that it attacked real victims.

They studied a finished software file and found clues linking it to criminal activity.

The same AI connections that make the malware unusual could also help defenders find it.
