Hackers Are Hiding Instructions Inside Websites to Make AI Assistants Send Crypto Payments
Two newly discovered attack campaigns show how criminals can secretly hijack AI browsing agents by planting hidden commands in ordinary-looking web pages.

An AI Agent Ran a Ransomware Attack by Itself. Here's What That Means.
Criminals used an AI tool called Langflow to let a machine plan and carry out a multi-step ransomware intrusion without a human guiding every move — a shift that could make attacks faster and cheaper to run at scale.

Context Manipulation Attack 'BioShocking' Turns Agentic Browsers Into Credential Thieves
Researchers demonstrate how feeding poisoned context to AI-driven browser agents causes them to quietly drop safety guardrails and exfiltrate stored credentials.

Cursor IDE's Sandbox Cracked by Prompt Injection — No User Interaction Required
Two logic flaws in Cursor's command execution sandbox let attackers escape the isolation layer and run code on the underlying OS. Patches landed in April. The researchers say Cursor isn't alone.

The Hidden Cost of Agentic AI in Security: Token Budgets Are Now a Defense Problem
Cybersecurity platforms are racing to embed agentic AI, but the economics of token consumption, AI credits, and deployment architecture may undercut the value before defenders see a return.

Poisoned Repos Can Trick Claude Code Into Opening a Reverse Shell
Researchers show that prompt injection hidden inside a repository's files is enough to turn Anthropic's agentic coding tool against the developer running it.

Prompt Injection in Git Repos Can Turn Claude Code Into a Reverse Shell Launcher
Malicious instructions buried in a repository's files can hijack Anthropic's Claude Code agent and open a backdoor on the developer's own machine — no obvious malware required.

Guardian Agents and the Identity Layer That Doesn't Exist Yet
Autonomous agents are inheriting human permissions at machine speed. The IAM stack wasn't built for this, and the governance gap is widening.

AI Agents Are Being Manipulated Through the Data They Trust
Hidden content injections and context poisoning are turning autonomous AI pipelines into attack surfaces. Here's what defenders need to understand before deploying agents at scale.

The Patch Cycle Won't Survive Machine-Speed Adversaries
Defenders measured dwell time in days. Agentic attack pipelines are about to measure it in minutes.

Agentic AI Runs on Context. Feed It the Wrong Kind and Decisions Go Sideways Fast.
The core vulnerability in agentic AI systems isn't the model — it's the context window. Bad inputs, machine-speed outputs.

AI-SPM Is Now a Real Category. Here's Why Your Organization Probably Needs It.
More than half of enterprise AI agents run without security oversight or logging. A maturing class of AI security posture management tools exists to fix that — if you know what to look for.

When the Trigger Pulls Itself: Agentic AI and the End of the Human-in-the-Loop
Every weapon in history extended a human decision. Agentic systems are the first that try to replace it — and the security implications are not theoretical.

AWS Continuum Wants to Close the Gap Between AI-Generated Code and AI-Fixed Vulnerabilities
Amazon's new agentic security service promises continuous discovery, triage, and remediation. In practice, it's a bet that the same AI acceleration creating your backlog can also drain it.

AutoJack: When the AI Browser Becomes the Initial Access Broker
Microsoft researchers describe an exploit chain that turns an agentic browser into a one-click path from web page to host process execution.
