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.

Maland | Another Cursor 0-day Enabling Arbitrary Code Execution Beyond Git.exe

Cursor 3.0.0 patches CVE-2026-48124, a class of sandbox-to-host code execution weaknesses affecting AI coding agents including Cursor, OpenAI Codex CLI, Google Gemini CLI, and Antigravity, where files written by a sandboxed agent are later consumed and executed by trusted host tooling (extensions, task runners, Git integrations, Docker). Related research by Mindgard and others details a Windows binary-planting flaw where opening a repository auto-executes a malicious git.exe planted at the repo root, yielding zero-click arbitrary code execution with no prompt injection or model in the loop.

NVD - CVE-2026-62676

CVE-2026-62676 is a HIGH-severity (CVSS 7.1) flaw in Omnigent, an open-source AI agent framework and meta-harness for orchestrating coding agents. Prior to 0.3.0, the shared shell-command parser in _shell.py fails to recognize combined interpreter flags, timeout/nice/setsid/stdbuf wrappers, command substitutions, and a background control operator, so a gated git push or gh write hidden in these forms produces no parsed operation, causing the repo/branch allowlist and workspace confinement policies to abstain and allow the command. An authenticated or prompt-injected agent can push to an unauthorized repository or branch or escape the intended workspace; fixed in version 0.3.0. Details →

AWS, Google, and Vercel Agent Flaws Let Attackers Trigger Tools Without Running the Model

Security flaws in agent infrastructure from AWS (Bedrock AgentCore's InvokeHarness API), Google (Agent Development Kit for Python), and Vercel (AI SDK harness packages for Codex and OpenCode) allow untrusted or forged instructions to reach an agent's tools without verifying that a model turn authorized them. In several attack paths the model never ran, so system prompts, content filters, and model-level guardrails never engaged. AWS fixed the managed service, Google addressed the issues in ADK 2.5.0, and Vercel patched @ai-sdk/harness-codex 1.0.29 and @ai-sdk/harness-opencode 1.0.28. Details →

Paperclip AI Flaws Let Attackers Run Host Commands via Malicious Agent Imports

Two flaws in Paperclip, an open-source control plane for teams of AI agents, let attackers execute host commands by importing and starting a malicious agent. The server-side path CVE-2026-41679 (CVSS 10.0) needs no account or victim interaction against authenticated deployments with default registration, while GHSA-x8hx-rhr2-9rf7 (CVSS 9.6) triggers when a user opens an attacker-controlled page in default local_trusted mode; a third flaw exposed sensitive data via API routes lacking access checks. Version v2026.416.0 adds import-authorization and hostname-validation fixes. Details →
