Attack via public llms.txt file turns guidance data into executable code for AI agents.
Tom's Hardware reports researchers demonstrated a supply-chain attack on AI agents at Fortune 500 companies. The method uses a public llms.txt guidance file to make the agents execute arbitrary code. The post states this shows how data has become code in such systems. Coverage includes a generated headline on the trick and links to the full article describing the file-based approach.
