AWS Kiro: Arbitrary Code Execution via Indirect Prompt Injection

Researchers found a vulnerability (CVE-2026-10591) in AWS Kiro, an agentic IDE, where hidden instructions planted in a web page or source file that Kiro processes can trigger indirect prompt injection to rewrite Kiro's own MCP server configuration (~/.kiro/settings/mcp.json) or allowlist arbitrary Bash commands in .vscode/settings.json, achieving arbitrary code execution on the developer's machine with no approval prompt. The human-in-the-loop approval boundary is bypassed because Kiro can write to these config files without user consent, and AWS has issued a fix and CVE.

Red Agent Exploits Snowflake Vuln Created by Copilot Autofix

Wiz's autonomous AI-powered "Red Agent" discovered and exploited a script injection vulnerability in Snowflake's snowflakedb/snowflake-connector-net GitHub Actions workflow, where opening a GitHub issue with a crafted title allowed an unauthenticated user to run arbitrary commands in the runner and exfiltrate Jira credentials. The flaw was inadvertently introduced days earlier by GitHub Copilot Autofix, which stripped a sanitized input pattern in favor of direct string interpolation; Snowflake patched it the same day it was reported (June 23, 2026) via its HackerOne program and rotated the exposed token.

ChainDrop: When Opening a Repository Becomes Execution

Researchers (Novee Security and Pillar Security's "ChainDrop") disclosed critical flaws in the GitHub Actions-based coding agents shipped by Anthropic (Claude Code), Google (Gemini CLI) and OpenAI (Codex), where a single zero-privilege input such as a GitHub issue or opening a repository triggers indirect prompt injection leading to remote code execution on the vendor's own runner, exfiltration of live API keys and GITHUB_TOKEN, persistent agent hijacking, and downstream supply-chain compromise (Gemini CLI rated CVSS 10.0). Multiple CVEs (e.g. CVE-2026-54316, CVE-2026-12537, CVE-2026-50522) and vendor security advisories were issued, but the report warns thousands of public repos running default configs remain exposed.
