Security Flaws in AWS, Google, and Vercel Agent Systems Allow Unauthorized Tool Execution
Security flaws in AWS, Google, and Vercel agent systems allowed attackers to trigger tools without model authorization, bypassing safety mechanisms. The vulnerabilities were addressed through patches, but some exposures remained in open-source components and specific configurations.
Security flaws in agent infrastructure from Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google, and Vercel let untrusted or forged instructions reach an agent's tools with no check that a model turn had authorized them.
In several of the attack paths, the model never ran at all, so system prompts, content filters, and model-level guardrails never got a chance to intervene.
