Uncontrolled Recursion in AI Agent Loops
AI agents can call themselves into runaway loops, burning thousands of dollars and crashing services. Here's why it happens and how to stop it.
Deep dives, practical guides, and incident analyses from engineers who build Safeguard. No fluff, no vendor FUD — just what you need to ship secure software.
AI agents can call themselves into runaway loops, burning thousands of dollars and crashing services. Here's why it happens and how to stop it.
How attackers poisoned ChatGPT's memory and RAG pipelines to hijack AI agents long-term, and the controls Safeguard uses to catch it before it spreads.
How AI agents with code-execution tools get hijacked by prompt injection—from the Vanna.ai RCE (CVE-2024-5565) to LangChain and MCP—and what to do about it.
Agentic AI systems trust tools and models at runtime, not build time. Real 2024-2025 incidents show how MCP servers and AI packages become supply chain attack vectors.
AI agents now inherit more privilege than they need — and incidents like the Microsoft 38TB SAS-token leak and ServiceNow's Now Assist flaw show what happens when that privilege gets abused.
Attackers don't need to hack AI agents — they just redirect their own tools. Here's how tool misuse works, real 2025 incidents, and how to stop it.
Attackers are hijacking autonomous AI agents by planting instructions in content they read—no exploit needed. Here's how it works, real 2025 incidents, and defenses.
LLM hallucinations aren't just AI trivia — they invent packages attackers squat on, fake CVEs, and false advisories that have already cost real companies real money.
How attackers exploit token-based pricing and growing context windows to exhaust LLM compute and inflate cloud bills — and the concrete limits that stop them.
