AgentBaiting: How Fake AI Skills Deliver Malware at Scale
Island security researchers uncovered the FakeGit campaign, which used roughly 7,600 malicious GitHub repositories—over 800 posing as AI Skills or MCP servers—to deliver SmartLoader malware that installs the StealC information stealer. The campaign introduces a technique called AgentBaiting, in which AI agents such as Claude Code, Gemini, and ChatGPT autonomously discover the attacker repositories, treat the malicious README as legitimate documentation, and pass installation instructions to users; the operation recorded over 14 million downloads.supply-chain · tool-abuse · malware-delivery · agentbaiting

DuneSlide: Two Critical RCE vulnerabilities
Cato AI Labs disclosed two critical vulnerabilities in Cursor IDE, dubbed DuneSlide (CVE-2026-50548 and CVE-2026-50549, both CVSS 9.8), that allow zero-click prompt injection to escape the editor's command sandbox and achieve remote code execution. CVE-2026-50548 abuses the run_terminal_cmd tool's working_directory parameter to add attacker-chosen folders to the allowed-write list, letting an attacker overwrite the cursorsandbox binary or shell startup files and turn sandboxed commands into full system compromise. Cursor patched both in version 3.0, released April 2; earlier 2.x builds remain exposed. Details →How the wire is made
