Infostealers Target Claude, Cursor, Codex and Other AI Agents to Steal Credentials and Sensitive Data
Gen Digital researchers report infostealer families Amatera, Remus and CallbackBeaver now harvest Claude, Cursor and Codex agent data, including tokens and MCP configs.
Gen Digital researchers found commodity infostealers extending their collection rules to local AI coding agent data from Claude, Cursor, Codex, Cline, Continue and OpenCode on Windows and macOS. Amatera targets Cline and Continue, Remus targets Claude, Cursor and OpenCode, and CallbackBeaver added Claude and Cursor with more than 5,000 samples observed in 30 days; Djinn Stealer hits Claude, Codex, Gemini, Cline, OpenCode and Kilo on macOS. Stolen data includes access and refresh tokens, prompt histories, conversation databases and MCP configurations holding API keys, potentially exposing connected source-control, cloud and ticketing systems. Remus is assessed as a Lumma Stealer variant using EtherHiding C2 resolution via Ethereum smart contracts.

ASCII smuggling crosses over from AI prompt injection to phishing evasion
Microsoft details high-volume phishing campaign using ASCII smuggling (Unicode tag chars) for filter evasion, peaking at 2.3M messages.
Microsoft researchers observed a high-volume finance-themed phishing campaign using invisible Unicode tag characters (U+E0000–U+E007F), a technique known from AI prompt injection research as ASCII smuggling, to split lure words like 'funding' and evade email filters. Telemetry from Microsoft Defender for Office 365 showed signature hits jump from roughly 21,000 messages on February 8, 2026 to more than 1.3 million on February 9, peaking above 2.3 million on February 11, with elevated weekday activity lasting approximately three months. The discovery emerged from prompt injection protection research, showing AI-era evasion techniques crossing into traditional phishing. Most messages were flagged by layered Defender protections rather than a single Unicode-specific signal.

Fraudsters steal $6 million from Tectonic crypto platform after inflating token price
Attackers inflated Tectonic's Tonic token price 100x in 20 minutes and borrowed $74 million against it, stealing $6 million before Cronos halted activity.
Attackers manipulated the price of Tectonic's thinly traded Tonic token, raising it more than 100-fold in 20 minutes, then used the inflated tokens as collateral to borrow assets in an attempted $74 million theft. About $6 million left the platform; Cronos halted blockchain activity and later restored roughly $69 million in frozen funds via an on-chain rollback. Tectonic plans a phased reopening and a postmortem. TRM Labs says market manipulation now accounts for one in eight crypto hacks, with 32 incidents in 2026, and compares the case to the 2022 Mango Markets manipulation that led to a criminal conviction.

CISA Warns Chinese AI Firms Extract Billions of Tokens From Claude, GPT, Gemini and Grok
CISA, NSA and FBI advisory says six Chinese AI firms extracted billions of tokens from Claude, GPT, Gemini and Grok via API proxies since late 2024.
A joint advisory from CISA, NSA and FBI alleges China-based AI companies including DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, Alibaba, MiniMax, StepFun and Z.AI harvested billions of tokens across millions of exchanges from Claude, GPT, Gemini and Grok variants since late 2024. Operators allegedly used API proxy 'transfer stations', account pools, bulk premium subscriptions and prompt injection or jailbreak-style requests to force models to reveal chain-of-thought reasoning. DeepSeek's R1 and V3 and Moonshot's Kimi-K2 and Kimi-K3 models reportedly benefited from the extracted data. CISA urged providers to add identity checks, monitor subscription-to-usage ratios, rate limit, and share infrastructure signals with cloud platforms.

CVE-2026-75156: Apache Airflow FAB provider: FAB Azure AD OAuth: id_token issuer/audience not validated — cross-tenant authentication bypass
Apache Airflow FAB provider flaw (CVE-2026-75156) lets attackers bypass Azure AD OAuth token validation via unvalidated issuer and audience claims.
Apache Airflow FAB provider versions 3.7.3 through 3.8.0 do not validate the issuer or audience of Azure AD id_tokens during OAuth login, enabling cross-tenant authentication bypass. The issue affects deployments where the FAB auth manager is configured with Azure AD as an OAuth provider. A fix is available in version 3.8.1. Severity is rated moderate.

Doubloon Dredger Abuses Notion to Harvest Authentication Tokens
Doubloon Dredger malware abuses Notion and malicious PDFs to steal Microsoft authentication tokens from victims.
Doubloon Dredger is a malware campaign that abuses Notion and malicious PDF files to harvest Microsoft authentication tokens. Using a legitimate collaboration service likely helps the operation blend into trusted SaaS traffic and evade detection. Stolen Microsoft authentication tokens can enable account access without knowing user passwords.
