Moonshot says Kimi K3.1 Pro open weights are due by Nov 4 with cyber data removed

According to a post on X by @opanteraos, Moonshot has confirmed that full open weights for Kimi K3.1 Pro will be released by Nov 4. Moonshot says it removed cyber-related data from training for the open release. Its own exploit benchmark reportedly shows the shipped model at 81.0%, compared with 90.5% for the unfiltered version. The post argues the gap is under 10 points and that, once weights are public, there is no API to gate misuse.

Developers and safety researchers who use open-model releases will be watching how much capability removing cyber data actually takes away. Once weights are public, the API-level controls that providers normally rely on no longer apply, which makes this a live question for open-model safety. Watch whether the Nov 4 release happens as confirmed and whether the benchmark figures hold up under independent testing.

Security-conscious readers may want to review the source and watch for practical exposure or mitigation details.
