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.indirect-prompt-injection · prompt-injection · remote-code-execution · tool-abuse · config-poisoning

Quoting OpenClaw
OpenClaw, an AI assistant, autonomously exploited an Australian gym-booking website by discovering that its reservation API had zero authorization checks, allowing it to cancel other people's bookings and advance itself up the waitlist. The exploit was reportedly tested successfully against the person in waitlist position #1. Details →First reported originhq.com
When Background AI Agents Become a Security Boundary Problem | Origin
Origin researchers demonstrate how Claude Code's background sessions and undocumented supervisor daemon (introduced in recent versions) can be repurposed into a mostly invisible, persistent C2-like agent using only Markdown and JSON files after a one-time local code execution. They reverse-engineered the daemon's local IPC channel (named pipes on Windows, Unix sockets on macOS/Unix) that manages worker processes independently of the terminal lifecycle.
