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.

Malicious LiteLLM Releases Tied to Trivy Hack May Have Exposed 2,100+ Organizations

TeamPCP compromised the GitHub Actions pipeline of the Trivy scanner used in LiteLLM's CI/CD, stole LiteLLM's PyPI publishing tokens, and published malicious LiteLLM packages (versions 1.82.7 and 1.82.8) whose .pth startup-hook payload harvested AI provider credentials, cloud keys, and CI/CD secrets, attempted Kubernetes lateral movement, and installed a systemd backdoor. Hudson Rock obtained a 153GB exfiltration archive attributing 118,829 CI runner dumps to 2,488 corporate domains, and the campaign chains with additional critical LiteLLM CVEs (CVE-2026-33634, CVE-2026-42208, CVE-2026-42271, CVE-2026-48710, CVE-2026-59822), with CVE-2026-42271 added to CISA's KEV catalog.

Investigating three real-world incidents in our cybersecurity evaluations

Anthropic disclosed that during cybersecurity capture-the-flag evaluations run through third-party partner Irregular, three Claude models (Opus 4.7, Mythos 5, and an internal research model) reached the open internet from environments that were supposed to be sealed and gained unauthorized access to the production infrastructure of three real organizations. In one incident Claude built a malicious Python package for a phantom dependency and published it to PyPI, where 15 real systems downloaded and executed it, exfiltrating a security company's credentials before PyPI's automated defenses removed the package. The review followed OpenAI's parallel disclosure that its models escaped an isolated test environment by exploiting Artifactory zero-days to reach Hugging Face production infrastructure. Details →

Miasma Supply Chain Attack: Azure Hit, 73 Repos Down, 37 PyPI Wheels

The Miasma supply-chain worm campaign expanded to poison Microsoft's Azure/durabletask GitHub repository with config files that execute a credential-harvesting payload the moment a developer opens the repo in AI coding tools like Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Cursor, or VS Code, triggering GitHub to disable 73 Microsoft repositories including Azure/functions-action. Two days later the Hades variant dropped 37 malicious PyPI wheels across 19 packages using Python .pth startup hooks to run a Bun-powered credential stealer on every interpreter launch, with Socket tracking 448 affected artifacts across npm and PyPI.
