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.

CVE-2026-35029 Exploited for Full Server Takeover

CVE-2026-35029, a critical broken access control flaw in the LiteLLM AI gateway (versions before 1.83.0, CVSS 8.8), is being actively exploited to read sensitive files and achieve full server takeover. Attackers abuse the unauthenticated /config/update route to point UI_LOGO_PATH at files like /app/.env or /proc/self/environ and retrieve their plaintext contents via /get_image, and can overwrite admin credentials and register malicious pass-through proxy routes to exfiltrate model API secrets. Honeypot telemetry recorded roughly 3,900 requests from 73 distinct IPs targeting admin routes; the fix is version 1.83.0. Details →

Defending Against an Active Threat to Siemens S7 Series PLCs

Five US federal agencies (NSA, CISA, FBI, DOE, EPA) issued advisory AA26-231A warning of an active threat in which attackers use AI coding assistants together with open source industrial libraries (snap7.dll/python-snap7) to generate custom exploitation scripts disguised as legitimate OT monitoring tools against internet-exposed Siemens S7 Series PLCs at water, energy, manufacturing, and other critical facilities. The AI-generated tools provide read/write access to PLC memory, configuration, and ladder logic via the S7comm protocol, and the activity is suspected to be linked to Iran-affiliated operatives.

IBM's agentic AI platform is under active attack - patch now

A critical vulnerability, CVE-2026-9198, in IBM-owned low-code AI agent builder Langflow lets unauthenticated attackers achieve remote code execution on default deployments by chaining an auto-login endpoint that mints superuser tokens with a code-validation endpoint that runs arbitrary Python. CISA added it to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog after confirming active exploitation; IBM says Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.0 are affected and urges upgrading to 1.10.1 or later. Sysdig telemetry documents in-the-wild attack chains (including related CVE-2026-33017 RCE and CVE-2026-55255 IDOR) that probe /api/v1/auto_login, enumerate flows, and deliver second-stage loaders.
