The attacker gives the AI agents high-level instructions and lets them execute attacks autonomously at scale, with an average cost of only $25 per target and success rates varying across at least 27 compromised companies including major retailers and airlines.","solution":"N/A -- no mitigation discussed in source.","labels":["security","safety"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/malicious-ai-agents-steal-600k-credit-cards-infect-100-plus-sites-with-skimmers/","publishedAt":"2026-09-23T16:20:54.000Z","cveId":null,"cweIds":null,"cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"severity":"high","attackType":["supply_chain"],"issueType":"news","affectedPackages":null,"affectedVendors":["Anthropic"],"affectedVendorsRaw":["Anthropic","Claude Opus 4.6","OpenRouter"],"classifierModel":"claude-haiku-4-5-20251001","classifierPromptVersion":"v3","cvssVector":null,"attackVector":null,"attackComplexity":null,"privilegesRequired":null,"userInteraction":null,"exploitMaturity":null,"epssScore":null,"patchAvailable":null,"disclosureDate":"2026-09-23T16:20:54.000Z","capecIds":null,"crossRefCount":0,"attackSophistication":"advanced","impactType":["confidentiality","integrity"],"aiComponentTargeted":"agent","llmSpecific":true,"classifierConfidence":0.95,"researchCategory":null,"atlasIds":null}}
