Rogue Agent: a Dialogflow CX vulnerability could expose third-party chatbots in Google Cloud

Colleagues, I’d like to draw your attention to a cybersecurity and AI security development.

Google has fixed a critical vulnerability in Dialogflow CX, dubbed Rogue Agent by Varonis.

With edit rights to one agent that used Code Blocks, it was possible to affect other agents within the same project.

The risk included access to live conversations, theft of user data, and the ability for a bot to send phishing messages.

Why this matters: in this architecture, permissions to modify an agent can effectively amount to permissions to execute code.

Do you verify who has access to Playbooks and Code Blocks in your AI agents?
