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.

Black Hat 2026: AI Agent Framework Flaws Expose Secrets

Check Point researchers Shahar Tal and Yarden Porat presented at Black Hat 2026 an audit of major AI agent frameworks — LangChain, CrewAI, Microsoft Agent Framework and Google's ADK — uncovering 21 findings across eight codebases including 12 CVEs. The flaws are classic vulnerability classes (unsafe deserialization, SSRF, SQL injection, sandbox escape, arbitrary file read, memory corruption, PDF-parser RCE) reachable via post-injection exploitation, where attacker-controlled content poisons an agent's memory and triggers the framework's own internal plumbing to steal credentials and data without calling dangerous functions directly.

From SQLi to RCE - Exploiting LangGraph’s Checkpointer - Check Point Research

Check Point Research (Yarden Porat and Shahar Tal) disclosed 11 vulnerabilities across six major AI agent frameworks — LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, the Microsoft Agent Framework, and Google ADK — including insecure deserialization, SSRF, path traversal, SQL injection, and use-after-free flaws. The most severe were RCE chains: a checkpoint deserialization flaw in the Microsoft Agent Framework triggerable via prompt injection, unauthenticated code execution in Google ADK, and three LangGraph checkpointer bugs (CVE-2025-67644, CVE-2026-28277, CVE-2026-27022). All disclosed issues were patched. Details →

From Prompt Injection to Web Exploitation: Revisiting Classic Vulnerabilities in LLM-Integrated Applications

A research paper by Spiros Tsigkopoulos and Christoforos Ntantogian introduces "LLM-mediated web attacks," a class where attacker-controlled input is transformed by an LLM-integrated application and then reaches traditional web-app sinks, systematized as LLM2X variants (LLM2SQLi, LLM2XSS, LLM2SSTI, LLM2CommandInjection, LLM2IDOR, LLM2CSRF, LLM2XXE, LLM2SSRF). The authors implement TicketOracle, a Flask-based LLM-integrated app, to evaluate LLM2SSRF across five scenarios and seven LLMs, finding substantial model-specific variation in susceptibility.
