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

UAT-10147 deploys SPECTRE: A cross-platform implant with Linux rootkit and BYOVD capabilities
Cisco Talos reports that UAT-10147, a Chinese-speaking intrusion actor, is integrating agentic AI and AI-assisted code generation into its offensive operations against IIS and Linux servers, deploying the new cross-platform SPECTRE implant with a Linux rootkit, BYOVD-based EDR bypass, and in-memory web shells. Talos assesses that AI-driven exploit refinement, payload generation, validation, and post-exploitation automation let the actor scale complex attacks (a target list of ~170,000 URLs) while lowering required expertise.

Lone Attacker Uses AI to Breach AWS Cloud Environment in 72 Hours
Incident response firm Sygnia published research describing how a lone, financially motivated attacker used agentic AI workflows to accelerate reconnaissance, attack-tool development, command structuring, and environment-specific adaptation, compromising a large AWS environment in roughly 72 hours and extorting a global enterprise. The attacker chained cloud misconfigurations and stolen credentials, executing cloud attack techniques far faster and wider than typical for a small-scale operation. Details →How the wire is made
