AWS Kiro Flaw Let a Poisoned Web Page Rewrite Its Config and Run Code

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

Why Do Some Proxies Work Fine for Search But Fail Once You Start Filtering Results?
