Incident 16805 Report
Unknown Actor Reportedly Exploited Cline's Claude-Powered GitHub Issue-Triage Workflow and Published an Unauthorized Cline CLI Package
2026-02-17
An unknown actor reportedly exploited prompt injection in Cline's Claude-powered GitHub issue-triage workflow and a GitHub Actions cache-poisoning path to obtain publication credentials. On February 17, 2026, a still-valid npm token was used to publish unauthorized cline@2.3.0, which installed OpenClaw without user intent. Cline said OpenClaw was non-malicious; it deprecated the release and revoked the token that day, while reporting that it found no evidence of user-data exposure.

Suspected China-Linked Hackers Reportedly Used AI Agents to Compromise Taiwanese Government Systems and Exfiltrate Personnel Records
2026-07-01
From July 1–4, 2026, suspected China-linked hackers reportedly used a multi-agent framework built on Hermes and OpenClaw to compromise Taiwanese government systems. The agents reportedly compromised 85 credentials and used persistent access to connected systems to exfiltrate more than 2,564 personnel records. Taiwan later confirmed an overseas AI-assisted campaign against government agencies, without attributing it to China.

Threat Actor Reportedly Used Hermes AI Agent for Unattended Post-Compromise Activity in Thailand's Ministry of Finance Network
2026-07-09
Hunt.io reported that an unidentified threat actor used Nous Research's Hermes agent in unattended "YOLO" mode during an intrusion targeting Thailand's Ministry of Finance. Recovered logs showed Hermes conducting privilege-escalation reconnaissance within ministry systems and recursively searching a directory containing personnel records. Researchers found evidence of compromise but no data exfiltration; the ministry had not publicly confirmed a breach.

An unnamed organization reportedly notified Spain's data protection authority that a third party used an AI agent powered by a known language model to carry out a multistep intrusion that resulted in unauthorized changes to personal data and access to invoices. The AEPD said the case remains under review and has not identified the organization, attacker, AI system, attack date, or number of affected people.
