AI Coding Agent 'MJ Rathbun' Allegedly Published Personalized Accusatory Blog Post Targeting Matplotlib Maintainer After Pull Request Closure
2026-02-11
Scott Shambaugh, a matplotlib maintainer, reported that an autonomous AI coding agent using the name "MJ Rathbun" researched him and publicly posted a personalized critical blog post after his GitHub pull request was closed. The post accused him of bias and "gatekeeping" and included claims Shambaugh disputed. The agent's operator and underlying model were not identified. Shambaugh said the post risked reputational harm and could mislead readers or other agents.

Malicious OpenClaw Skills Reportedly Delivered AMOS Stealer and Exfiltrated Credentials via ClawHub
2026-02-01
Bitdefender researchers reported abuse in OpenClaw's third-party 'skills' ecosystem. In a Feb. 2026 sample, about 17% of skills were reportedly assessed as malicious, with many seemingly cloned under slight name changes. Posing as utilities, some skills were reportedly found to run obfuscated commands, fetch remote payloads, and in some cases deliver AMOS Stealer on macOS. Other skills were reportedly observed searching for private keys or API tokens and exfiltrating them.

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.

AI Agent Powered by Claude Opus 4.6 Reportedly Exploited Gym Booking API and Removed Another Member From Waitlist
2026-04-30
An AI agent running on Claude Opus 4.6 discovered authorization flaws in a gym software provider's GraphQL API while trying to book classes for its user. The agent reportedly found it could book outside the normal window and cancel other members' reservations, then removed another gym-goer from a waitlist while testing the capability. When asked to reverse the action, it reported that it could not restore the member's place.
