AWS Kiro Flaw Let a Poisoned Web Page Rewrite Its Config and Run Code
Intezer and Kodem Security discovered a vulnerability in AWS Kiro, an agentic coding IDE, that allowed hidden text on a web page to trigger configuration file rewrites and arbitrary code execution on a developer's machine without requiring user approval. AWS has released a patch, and the flaw remains unassigned a CVE identifier.
Why it matters: Developers using Kiro face immediate remote code execution risk when visiting or having Kiro analyze untrusted web pages; teams should update AWS Kiro immediately and review access controls for agentic tools that interact with external content.
