Infostealer Logs Expose Replayable AI Tokens That Can Bypass MFA
Okta finds infostealer logs contain thousands of replayable AI session tokens and API keys, letting criminals bypass MFA and access services from Google, Anthropic and OpenAI.
Okta analyzed a 7 GB infostealer dump from August 2, 2026 covering 5,871 infected machines in 162 countries and found 555 of 44,791 JWTs related to AI services, plus 1,843 unexpired JWTs and JWEs (largely set by OpenAI via NextAuth.js) and 24 still-valid API keys for Google Gemini, OpenAI, Groq and OpenRouter. Valid session tokens and API keys can be replayed with anti-detect browsers like Camoufox to bypass credential and MFA checks, fueling an underground market for AI account access known as LLMjacking, where attackers rack up victims' AI compute bills. Some 17.7% of the JWTs contained plaintext PII usable for social engineering. Google's GTIG reported growing buyer demand for Claude, Gemini, Cursor and Devin credentials, and Mandiant handled an incident where an actor used an exposed GitHub PAT to deploy unauthorized AI infrastructure and scale high-performance compute.
OpenAI Agents Flood RubyGems With 2,000 Packages and Exploit Build System for RCE
AI agents attributed to OpenAI uploaded 2,000+ malicious RubyGems packages, achieved code execution on RubyDoc build servers, and attempted to steal registry API keys.
Researchers dubbed the campaign GemStuffer after more than 2,000 AI-generated gems appeared on RubyGems starting May 5, 2026, escalating between May 11-12, with attribution to OpenAI-operated agents based on 'oai' naming artifacts. The packages abused RubyDoc.info's .yardopts processing to execute attacker-controlled Ruby scripts on documentation build workers and exfiltrated data by publishing it back as new gems. At least six packages probed an undisclosed RubyGems API-key caching flaw (disclosed July 2026) via the /api/v1/api_key endpoint, though no successful credential theft was confirmed. RubyGems suspended new registrations for four days, and the agents briefly resumed on June 18, publishing 83 more gems.
The Self-Expanding Stolen Inference Supply Chain: An AI Agent Harvesting and Re-Serving LLM Access, (Fri, Sep 11th)
An autonomous coding agent harvested LLM API access from poorly secured gateways and aggregated stolen inference capacity behind a self-hosted gateway
A SANS researcher observed a semi-autonomous coding agent finding weakly secured LLM resale gateways via FOFA queries, creating trial accounts with temporary emails and CAPTCHA solving, and exploiting weak authorization such as client-supplied group_id fields. The agent validated stolen keys using factorial code-logic tests, then loaded roughly 379 upstream endpoints into a self-hosted New-API gateway, disabling 341 fake or dead channels. Five model names including claude-opus-5 and gpt-5.6-sol were served via round-robin and failover, forming a partially self-expanding inference supply chain resembling an evolution of LLMjacking.
