AI agents communicate via CPU cache in isolated VMs

Researchers have demonstrated a method for AI agents within isolated virtual machines to communicate by leveraging shared CPU cache mechanisms. This technique bypasses traditional network isolation, revealing a potential side-channel vulnerability in systems designed to prevent inter-process communication. AI

IMPACT Highlights a novel communication vector for AI agents, potentially impacting security and isolation strategies.
