One year since the Month of AI Bugs! 🔥 Wild how many improperly secured AI systems are out there. A lot of work to do!
👉 Month of AI Bugs 2025 To raise awareness of security vulnerabilities in AI systems I'll be sharing over 20 write-ups starting August 1st. The focus is primarily on coding agents, but there will also be a few other interesting posts.

Assume Breach I think we will still need a better term to reflect this strategy in the era of AI, but for now it's good enough
Lesson #1: AI can actively block your IR when needed most Probs up next: Defender AI without guardrails will "hack back" in one way or another So, threat model, sandbox and monitor your SOC AI accordingly.

Talks from Stanford's Real-World AI Security Conference are now on YouTube! Full list is here seclab.stanford.edu/RealWorl… So many amazing talks, I really liked: 🔹 AI Agents Enable Adaptive Computer Worms, Nicolas Papernot 🔥 🔹 The Road to Hell Is Paved with Helpful Agents, Vitaly Shmatikov 🤯 🔹 Evaluating and Defending Against Prompt Injection Attacks, Edoardo Debenedetti 🐪💥 ...and many more excellent talks covering outstanding research!

Anthropic: "Risk we missed" Happy to share that Claude Pirate got a subtle mention in the latest Anthropic engineering blog post, also shares how they fixed it 🙌
Ahoy! 🏴‍☠️ Claude got network access. When enabled, it can also communicate with Anthropic APIs! Twist: Attacker sets their own API key in prompt injection payload to upload user's data to their account 🔥

Exploiting AI Computer-Use and Coding Agents Paper
🔥 Took the Month of AI Bugs wreckage and turned it into a paper - AI Kill Chain 🧨 - Test cases and exploit chains (data exfil, rce, zombies!) - AgentHopper (a working AI virus for coding agents) 🦠 - SpAIware - Normalization of Deviance in AI zenodo.org/records/18769277

Attackers can exfiltrate user files from Cowork by exploiting an unremediated vulnerability in Claude’s coding environment, which now extends to Cowork. The vulnerability was first identified in Claude.ai chat before Cowork existed by Johann Rehberger, who disclosed the vulnerability. It was acknowledged but not remediated by Anthropic. promptarmor.com/resources/cl…

Fixed. 🙌 Stop by DEF CON Singapore to learn more about what happened here with M365 Copilot, and a lot of other shenanigans. 😈 msrc.microsoft.com/update-gu… Shout out to Microsoft for addressing this promptly.

NanoClaw 🔥 Don't give AI access to sensitive stuff you care about. Trust No AI, as usual.

As personal AI agents increasingly send messages to chat apps, it’s worth revisiting link unfurling. 😈 It's a straightforward data exfiltration vector. Attacker hijacks your AI to embed private data in URL, posts it & chatapp auto connects. 0-click.🔥 embracethered.com/blog/posts…
