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 fixes CVE-2026-48124, a sandbox-to-host code execution weakness where files created or modified by a sandboxed AI coding agent are later consumed and executed by trusted host tools (extensions, task runners, Git integrations, Python tooling, Docker services), achieving code execution beyond the sandbox without breaking OS isolation. Related research from Mindgard and others also documents a zero-click binary-planting flaw where opening a repository on Windows auto-executes a malicious git.exe planted at the repo root, with the execution surface extending beyond git.exe to other attacker-controlled files. The same class of weakness affects OpenAI Codex CLI, Google Gemini CLI, and Antigravity. Details →

How the wire is made

Poll & cluster

Internet is crawled for AI security news and near-duplicate coverage is embedded and grouped into durable items.

Curate

AI Agent filters for agentic-AI relevance, classifies and tags each item, scores severity for threats, and writes the summary.
