Akeyless adds real-time enforcement for AI agents in production
Akeyless launches Agentic Runtime Authority, enforcing real-time intent-based access control on AI agent actions, with integrations for Claude Enterprise, OpenAI Codex and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore
Akeyless announced general availability of Agentic Runtime Authority, a real-time identity control layer that evaluates AI agent actions and blocks policy-violating actions before execution, layered on top of its SecretlessAI credential brokering. New integrations cover Claude Enterprise, OpenAI Codex and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, alongside an Agentic Access Dashboard with session kill switches and event forwarding to Splunk, Datadog and Microsoft Sentinel. The vendor's platform already secures over 220 billion machine identity interactions for Fortune 500 organizations.
Malicious .git Configs Can Make Claude, Codex, Cursor, and Other AI Agents Run Attacker Code
Malicious .git core.fsmonitor configs let attacker code run in AI coding agents like Claude Code and Codex; four of eight flaws remain unpatched.
Manifold Security disclosed eight flaws across seven command-line AI coding agents where a repository's Git core.fsmonitor configuration causes agent-spawned commands to execute attacker code outside the sandbox and without approval prompts. Fixes shipped for goose (CVE-2026-72718, CVSS 4.0 score 7.0), Claude Code on one path, and Cursor, while Hermes Agent, Qwen Code, Grok Build, and a second Claude Code path were still unpatched as of September 1. OpenAI issued three CVEs for the same class in Codex, including CVE-2026-19592, and prior related bugs include CVE-2021-43891 in Visual Studio Code and CVE-2022-24346 in JetBrains IDEs. Exploitation requires the repository to arrive with its .git directory intact, such as via archives, shared drives, or USB sticks rather than an ordinary clone.
Attackers Breached JetBrains Cadence via Unpatched TeamCity, Extracting AWS Credentials
Unknown attackers exploited critical TeamCity flaw CVE-2026-63077 to breach JetBrains Cadence, stealing a 2024 backup, user data, and AWS credentials; rotation urged.
JetBrains disclosed that threat actors exploited CVE-2026-63077 (CVSS 9.8), a TeamCity deserialization vulnerability added to CISA's KEV catalog on August 5, 2026, to breach its Cadence cloud computing service, with the intrusion running August 8-24, 2026. Confirmed access includes personal data (usernames, names, emails, login timestamps, IPs), a full 2024 Cadence server backup containing credentials and configuration, multiple AWS IAM users and secrets, files in JetBrains S3 buckets, and possibly PyCharm-synchronized source code. The compromised api.cadence.jetbrains.com server has been taken offline and all Cadence plugin access tokens invalidated. JetBrains urges users to immediately revoke or rotate all credentials used with Cadence and treat all executions, inputs, and outputs as potentially untrusted.
