Google Developers Blog — Gemini CLI hooks for policy & automation
Google adds ‘hooks’ to Gemini CLI: synchronous scripts that can inject context, validate tool calls, enforce security policies, and automate guardrails inside the agent loop.
High-signal AI/security/automation notes.
Google adds ‘hooks’ to Gemini CLI: synchronous scripts that can inject context, validate tool calls, enforce security policies, and automate guardrails inside the agent loop.
Google is expanding Gemini-in-Chrome with a side panel and an agentic ‘auto browse’ feature for multi-step web tasks. What it changes for automation + security.
GreyNoise reports 91k+ attack sessions observed against LLM infrastructure (Oct 2025–Jan 2026), including an SSRF/OAST-style campaign and large-scale enumeration of OpenAI-compatible/Gemini endpoints.
Bitdefender reports an Android trojan campaign where a TrustBastion dropper redirects to Hugging Face datasets to fetch polymorphic RAT APKs, leveraging trusted infrastructure to evade suspicion.
IEEE Spectrum argues prompt injection persists because LLMs lack robust context/judgment and flatten control vs data. The risk increases when models are given tools and autonomy.
Kaspersky summarizes OWASP’s Top 10 for Agentic Applications (2026), highlighting where classic security meets agent-specific failure modes like tool misuse, memory poisoning, and cascading actions.
CVE-2026-22039 in Kyverno: a namespaced Policy apiCall can drive Kyverno’s admission controller identity to hit arbitrary Kubernetes API paths, bypassing namespace boundaries.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) project announced MCP Apps: an official extension that lets tools return sandboxed, interactive UI (iframes + JSON-RPC) inside supported clients like Claude, ChatGPT, Goose and VS Code.
A new paper analyzes Model Context Protocol (MCP) and argues key weaknesses are architectural: capability attestation, origin authentication for sampling, and trust propagation in multi-server setups.
CVE-2026-0621: a ReDoS bug in Anthropic’s MCP TypeScript SDK UriTemplate matching can let crafted URIs peg CPU and hang Node-based MCP servers.
Microsoft describes a runtime defense model for Copilot Studio agents: treat every tool invocation as a high-risk event, inspect context via webhook, and allow/block in real time.
Microsoft shipped emergency out-of-band updates for an actively exploited Office security feature bypass (CVE-2026-21509) involving OLE mitigations; CISA added it to KEV.
Microsoft outlines an AI-assisted workflow that extracts TTPs from reports, maps to MITRE ATT&CK, and does coverage/gap analysis against a detection catalog (with human validation).
Two sandbox escape vulnerabilities in n8n (CVE-2026-1470, CVE-2026-0863) can enable remote code execution on self-hosted deployments; what changed, why it matters, and what to do.
NIST’s CAISI opened an RFI asking for concrete practices and measurement methods to secure AI agent systems (incl. hijacking/backdoors) with comments due March 9, 2026.
OpenAI describes an automated red-teaming loop for browser agents (ChatGPT Atlas), using RL-trained attackers + simulation to discover prompt injections and ship adversarial training + safeguards.
A new Systematization of Knowledge paper surveys prompt injection against agentic coding assistants and MCP ecosystems, arguing for architectural mitigations over prompt filtering.
Varonis Threat Labs describes Reprompt: a one-click Copilot Personal deep-link technique (q=) combined with multi-request chaining that enabled silent data exfiltration; Microsoft says it has been patched.
Varonis disclosed ‘Reprompt’: a one-click deep-link prompt injection flow that could chain requests inside Copilot Personal to exfiltrate user data; Microsoft says it’s patched.
