This article discusses security vulnerabilities in AI agents, specifically focusing on the risks associated with static Service Accounts. It highlights issues like over-privileged agents and a lack of human accountability in logs, citing incidents at Asana, Cline, and Salesforce. The author proposes using Cross-App Access (XAA) with delegated tokens to enforce least privilege and maintain human attribution in security logs. Additionally, it addresses the challenge of data exfiltration through legitimate tools, even with strict token delegation, and suggests correlating API Gateway prompt inspection with SIEM identity and network logs for detection.
