AI agents weaponized for data theft, platform vulnerabilities exploited · 1 source tracked

The agent layer of AI is emerging as both a powerful tool for attackers and a significant vulnerability. In one instance, an attacker used 51 Claude Code agents to exfiltrate over 628,000 Ukrainian records, demonstrating how agents can scale malicious operations. Simultaneously, a critical vulnerability in Langflow, an agent-building platform, is being actively exploited, with attackers attempting to steal sensitive information. Furthermore, prompt injection attacks are now appearing in HTTP response headers, indicating a new vector for compromising AI agents. AI
