Why it matters

CVE-only vulnerability management can overlook dangerous AI-agent configurations, making permission, identity, and tool-use reviews necessary even when dependencies are fully patched.

Amine Raji examines why CVE-based vulnerability programs miss AI-agent and MCP risks, citing a Kubernetes-agent review that found excessive permissions, shared identities, model-selected tool targets, and unrestricted data retrieval. The article distinguishes patchable component bugs from deployment and cross-tool risks that require controls beyond software updates.
