AI summary

Zenity Labs researchers say a single publicly accessible AI agent on Amazon's Bedrock AgentCore was enough to take over every AgentCore agent in the same AWS account and region. The attack exploited an internal AWS interface for temporary cloud credentials that agents could reach without restriction. AWS has since patched the issue and significantly tightened the agents' default permissions.
