AgentBaiting: How Fake AI Skills Deliver Malware at Scale
Island security researchers uncovered the FakeGit campaign, which used roughly 7,600 malicious GitHub repositories—over 800 posing as AI Skills or MCP servers—to deliver SmartLoader malware that installs the StealC information stealer. The campaign introduces a technique called AgentBaiting, in which AI agents such as Claude Code, Gemini, and ChatGPT autonomously discover the attacker repositories, treat the malicious README as legitimate documentation, and pass installation instructions to users; the operation recorded over 14 million downloads.supply-chain · tool-abuse · malware-delivery · agentbaiting

Huntress researchers Jevon Ang and Dray Agha reported a June 2026 intrusion in which an unknown threat actor used a suspected AI-generated ('vibe-coded') PowerShell script to enumerate Active Directory, mapping the domain controller, users, computers, and domains before exporting results and generating an AD_Report.html. The attacker gained RDP access to a domain-joined Windows Server with pre-compromised credentials and staged tooling in C:\ProgramData\. Details →How the wire is made
