Researchers escaped OpenAI's Codex sandbox two ways, one running commands on a developer's machine from its most locked-down mode. OpenAI has patched both. [...]
The Hacker News
A flaw in DeepSeek Harness, DeepSeek's open-source tool for running AI coding agents on a developer's machine, let a sandboxed agent turn off its own sandbox with a single command. The tool runs an agent's commands inside an operating-system sandbox, so that an agent working on untrusted files cannot write outside its workspace. The agent could remove that limit by calling the tool's own web

Multiple software supply chain attacks have hit the npm ecosystem, with threat actors using both malicious and poisoned versions of over 50 legitimate packages to distribute a Rust-based information stealer and a self-spreading worm, respectively. According to JFrog, the information stealer "scrapes every secret it can find on a developer's machine, hides behind an eBPF kernel rootkit, and

Cybersecurity researchers have flagged yet another evolution of the ongoing GlassWorm campaign, which employs a new Zig dropper that's designed to stealthily infect all integrated development environments (IDEs) on a developer's machine. The technique has been discovered in an Open VSX extension named "specstudio.code-wakatime-activity-tracker," which masquerades as WakaTime, a

Manifold Security has disclosed eight security flaws across seven command-line AI coding agents in which a repository's own Git configuration names a command that the agent runs on the developer's machine, four of them still unpatched at publication. The command executes as the user, outside the agent's sandbox and without an approval prompt, and exploitation requires the repository to arrive

Hidden text on a web page was enough to make Kiro, AWS's agentic coding IDE, rewrite its own configuration file and run an attacker's code on a developer's machine, with no approval step able to stop it. Intezer, in research with Kodem Security, found that a request as ordinary as asking Kiro to summarize a page could end in remote code execution. AWS has patched the issue, and no CVE has been

Move along, nothing to see here Amazon has quietly fixed a couple of security issues in its coding agent: Amazon Q Developer VS Code extension. Attackers could use these vulns to leak secrets, including API keys from a developer's machine, and run arbitrary code.…

What is the worst that can happen when a developer's machine is compromised? Depending on the developer's position, attackers gain access to nearly everything: SSH keys, credentials, access to CI/CD pipelines and production infrastructure, the works.

This week, the developer of the popular npm package 'node-ipc' released sabotaged versions of the library in protest of the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian War. The 'node-ipc' package, which gets downloaded over a million times weekly, began deleting files on developer's machines, in addition to creating new text files with "peace" messages. [...]
